Singer and judge of `Indian Idol 14,` Kumar Sanu, shared his story of struggling to make a name for himself and recounted how the legendary composer Jagjit Singh discovered him, bringing him into the industry. The singing reality show celebrated Raj Babbar on its stage. Known for his commendable work in the film industry, Raj graced the show along with singer and actress Salma Agha. The contestants paid him a musical tribute and belted out some of their hit chartbusters to impress Judges Shreya Ghoshal and Kumar Sanu. However, it was contestant Piyush Panwar from Rajasthan who won the hearts of Raj Babbar and the judges.
He performed `Hothon Se Chhulo Tum` and `Tu Is Tarah Se Meri Zindagi,` from the films `Prem Geet` and `Aap To Aise Na The.` Praising Piyush’s singing style and discussing the legendary Jagjit Singh, the original singer of these songs, Raj Babbar said, "Outstanding. I was relived all those memories of both these songs. The song is very difficult, and you sang it so beautifully. Hearing ‘Hothon Se Chhulo tum’, I remembered my dear friend, Jagjit Singh. I feel fortunate that Jagjit Singh did his first playback song with me, not only for a Hindi film but also for a Punjabi film, Laung Da Lashkara.”
