And I disagree with you..😆Amit Kumar was a good singer ,no doubt, but for some reason singing wasn't exactly was his top priority. That was the reason why he never came up in life or established himself in the top list of good singers. He had immense opportunity when Kishoreda passed away, but he let go of his chances for whatever may be the reason. To be a good singer apart from talent one needs 100% dedication, hardwork and sincerity. Amitda surely fell short there and the historical results are here for us to see. So I don't agree that he is the best singer.He could have been had he tried, but he didn't.
I am also a fan of his, but I can see this lackadaisical attitude being his biggest drawback.
Advil, "unfortunately" Amitda is a son of Kishoreda. And he has always and always been compared with his father. Amit Kumar was born with silverspoon. So he was hardly worried about his career and all. Even Kishoreda himself used to worried for his career as singer because he was never serious about it (ofc, this is a Padhi-Suni Baat). But when I think from Amitda's point of view and when I also Heard him saying that he is not very ambitious person. And he never wanted to do any sort of chamchagiri to get a song; I think he was right in his own way. Everyone has his own choice to live his life. So that was Amitda's choice. But STILL he is the BEST (According to me) and he can make justice to ANY kind of song. Today the clones of Kishoreda has a particular label e.g. Singer x is good for singing soft song, singer Y is good for actor xyz, singer Z is good for tapori song, etc etc. But look at Amit Kumar, he has sung all types of successfull song. e.g.
Soone shaam savere [Khel]: Touchy and Sad kind of song
Har ghadi dhal rahi [Saransh]: Song that has immense depressing mood
Dekha jo tujhe yaar: Recent poppy number
Chhori ki baatein: Recent poppy number
Hum aur Tum [Jamai raja]: Superb love song
Kehdo ke tum ho meri varna [Tezaab]: Super Hit Love song
Tere Liye Sari umar jaagu: A Love Gem which is always heard as one of the BEST song of Amit Kumar
Tapori [Baaghi]: A Tapori song
Tunna tunna: another Tapori Number
I have a huge list, but I have tried to give the most popular numbers. All I am saying Amit Kumar is the BEST and versatile singer.
But still, we are not here to argue and criticise other singer. And afterall other singers also tried their best to be successful and ofc they are successful.
