Legendary Singer Manna Dey who had been ailing for quite sometime now from acute respiratory problems, breathed his last in Bangalore today morning. The singer was 94.
Deemed as one of the industry’s most legendary singers ever, Dey sung in multiple Indian languages. Teaming up with singers like Kishore Kumar, Md. Rafi, Asha Bhonsle, Lata Mangeshkar and many more, the soothingly melodious songs of the late veteran singer is endless.
