Passed away in a day after testing positive? 😲 this is third such case am hearing in recent times... God when will these testing times end :((( 

May he Rest in peace..

Did he die bcz of heart attack or Covid?

Covid can affect the heart, lungs, brain, kidneys.  Even those who recover could have some permanent damage.  At age 70 he was sadly more vulnerable.

I had not heard his name, even though I had liked these songs. 

Artists who work for the song need to get some credits. (All we can remember is Bobby Deol).  

RIP

In the really olden days when people used to rely heavily on the radio for entertainment, they used to announce the names of the music director, lyricist, singers too along with the name of the movie before each song... So older people knew their names
