Veteran singer-composer Bappi Lahiri had posted a throwback picture of himself just two days before his demise. Lahiri passed away on Tuesday night at a Mumbai hospital due to multiple health issues.
Lahiri's last post was an old, monochrome photo of himself. He had captioned it, “Old is always gold.”
He was quite active on Instagram. From personal anecdotes to his work, Lahiri would often take to the social media platform to share photos and videos.
Here's taking a look at few of his posts:
Tribute to Lata Mangeshkar
Following legendary singer Lata Mangeshkar's death, he had posted a photo of him as a child, sitting on Mangeshkar's lap. Lahiri used to call her 'Maa'.
Memories With Kishore Kumar
Bappi Lahiri would share precious memories of learning from Kishore Kumar (his maternal uncle), Asha Bhosle and other greats. In one of the throwback photos, we can see a young Lahiri with lyricists Indeevar and Anjaan and Kishore Kumar and Asha Bhosle.
"Precious #kishorekumar #ashabhosle #indivar #anjaan", he had captioned the photo.
