Padma Shri award-winning Indian singer Kavita Krishnamurti paid tribute to legendary composer and singer Bappi Lahiri who recently passed away in a Mumbai hospital on Feb 16.

Kavita Krishnamurti said, "I`m extremely sad to hear about Bappi da`s passing. He was too young to die and so full of music to offer music lovers. There are so many of his songs that I really like. ‘Chalte Chalte’ ‘Raat Baaki’ (Namak Halaal), ‘Tu Pagal Premi Awara’ (Shola Aur Shabnam), ‘O Lal Dupatte Wali’ (Aankhen), ‘Jawani Janeman’ (Namak Halaal), ‘Gori Hai Kalaiyaan’ (Aaj Ka Arjun) and many more are part of my favourites."
