About Kailash Kher

Born in 1973, Kailash Kher is a Kashmiri. His early years were influenced by his famous father Mehar Singh, who has a name in the folk singing community. Kailash Kher has been recording albums since 2002 and has also had stints as a music director, lyricist, and actor. This is what Grammy winner A.R. Rahman has this to say about Kailash Kher:

…The moment I heard him, I knew that here was a voice that was so wonderful, and which had its own unique space…

What’s fascinating is that playback singing as a career happened by chance, he was initially quite an unsuccessful business man.
