who

took
to
his

and
mentioned
that
he
was
'shocked
and
surprised'
by
Bappi
Lahiri's
demise.
The
superstar
wrote,
"Bappi
Lahiri
..
music
director
extraordinaire
passes
away
..
shocked
and
surprised
and
in
the
misery
of
these
tragic
events
of
'passing'
in
the
rapid
succession
of
times.
His
songs
of
films
with
me
are
and
shall
I
believe
remain
eternal
..
they
are
played
hummed
sung
along
in
these
modern
generation
times
with
alacrity
and
rejoice."
Big
B
further
said
Bappi
had
a
remarkable
"sense
of
success" and
recalled
a
conversation
with
him
at
London's
Heathrow
airport
on
their
way
back
to
Mumbai.
"'Your
this
film
is
going
to
be
very
successful
and
the
song
I
just
gave,
shall
be
remembered
for
ages'.
He
was
right...
and
learning
the
graphs
of
some,
at
his
modest
home,
in
rehearsal,
an
even
greater
experience.
Slowly
they
all
leave
us,"
the
Brahmastra
actor
wrote
in
his
blog.
Known
as
the
'Disco
King',
Bappi
Lahiri
popularized
pop
music
in
Hindi
films
and
delivered
several
chartbuster
songs
in

He
passed
away
at
the
age
of
69
due

Kumar,
