Filmmaker and music composer Vishal Bhardwaj, who directed Gulzar's 'Maachis', on Wednesday reminisced how he and the singer KK, or Krishnakumar Kunnath, began their journey together with the movie. KK died on Tu♈esday night at the age of 53, only hours after his performance at Kolkata's Nazrul Mancha auditorium. Doctors at the h🗹ospital speculated that the death was caused by "cardiac arrest."
Bharadwaj shared the tribute on his Twitter ಞaccount.
KK sang 'Chhod Aaye Hum Woh Galiya♏an,' composed by Bhardwaj, alongside co-singers Hariharan, Suresh Wadkar, and Vinod Sehgal for the 1996 film.
'Maachis', starring Tabu and Chandrachur Singh, was a film about the Pun🅺jab insurgency. In the song 'Chhodh aaye hum wo galiyan,' Sin♍gh and his companions reminisce about their childhood.
Both KK and Bha🍬rdwaj then paired together for the song 'O' Mama' in Bhardwaj's 2011 directorial feature '7 Khoon Maaf'. Bhardwaj composed the song, while Gulzar wrote the lyrics.
