Veteran composer-singer Bappi Lahiri says people can\u2019t remember lyrics of songs today. He has compared them to a one-day cricket match.<\/p>\n
Lahiri has been in the music industry for over five decades and his given several hits like Yaad Aa Raha Hai, Yaar Bina Chain Kahan Re, Tamma Tamma Loge and I Am A Disco Dancer.<\/p>\n
Asked if he is happy with the lyrics and songs of today, Lahiri said: \u201cThe lyrics which we had before we don\u2019t have that anymore… Can you remember any wordings of a song? We are not going on wordings nowadays.\u201d<\/p>\n
The 64-year-old musician cited examples of songs like Yaar Bina Chain Kahan Re, Sochna Kya… Jo Bhi Hoga Dekha Jayega and said such lyrics are not written anymore.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe film may be a super hit, but the songs do not sustain. Songs today are just a one-day cricket match… The songs from the golden era… that is the test match. Be it Bappi Lahiri, Kalyanji-Anandji, RD Burman or Laxmikant-Pyarelal\u2019s songs… People still hum those songs,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
On the work front, Lahiri has dubbed for singer Elton John\u2019s part in the Hindi version of the Hollywood film The Kingsman: The Golden Circle.<\/p>\n
John has a special appearance in the Fox Star Studios film, where he would be playing himself. Bappi has dubbed for this part.<\/p>\n
