Style

Krishna is known for his very special (often uncommon) style which is very near to legend ustaad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. Krishna also accepts that he has a tendency to lean towards Khan Sahib's Sufi style.

Krishna is famous among his fans for his mastery on high notes (tar - saptak) in singing and harkats as well as alaaps; he is one of the most talented singers to hit high pitch notes with ease.

Also, when Krishna hits high notes he has more vibration or bass in his voice in comparison with other singers who hit high notes. He is also comfortable doing low notes (mandra saptak). Along with Kailash Kher and Sukhwinder, Krishna Beura is one of the most famous sufi style playback singers in Bollywood.
