About
Kumar Sanu's voice dominated 1990s Bollywood, which is no surprise considering his numerous comparisons to Kishore Kumar. The 1990 soundtrack for Aashiqui opened the floodgates for Sanu's career; the soundtrack was a phenomenal, award-winning hit that helped Sanu to go on to win five consecutive Filmfare awards (1990-94). After recording hundreds of albums, Sanu began to slow down, becoming more choosy and branching out into acting in films from his native Bengal. Sanu was born Sanu Bhattacharya.
