Since childhood, there was ties with notes

But ties with notes have never been broken. His dream was – becoming a singer and he showed it to come true with his passion.
This voice was behind every superstar

There is an anecdote that a sick girl said to her mother – “If Mukesh ji comes and hear me, then I will be fine.” When Mukesh came to know about this, he himself reached the girl and narrated her in his heart touching voice.
Broken voice in america
In 1976, Mukesh went to America in a troupe with Lata Mangeshkar. He had to do live shows there for a month. At 4 pm in Detroit, when he was doing ‘Jeena Die Jahna here’ on the harmonium, he suddenly felt restless. The doctor was called and rushed to the hospital immediately, but by then it was late. He had a heart attack and despite all the efforts, Mukesh said goodbye to this world forever.
A heritage that will never end
Mukesh may not be among us today, but his voice, his feelings and his songs will always be alive. He was not just a singer, but he was a feeling that reached the depth of every heart. Every time when a song rings on the radio, there is a silence… and only one voice comes from the heart- ‘I wish they would still…’
