Manhar Udhas
Manhar Udhas is a Hindi and Gujarati language singer and Bollywood playback singer.
Manhar Udhas is the eldest son of Keshubhai Udhas and Jituben Udhas, and the elder brother of the singer Pankaj Udhas, who died on 26 February in 2024 and Nirmal Udhas. He completed his mechanical engineering training in Gujarat and moved to Mumbai in the late 1960s to look for a job.
With a lifelong passion for music, Manhar found an entry into the industry through his brother-in-law, a filmmaker in Mumbai, who introduced him to Music Directors Kalyanji Anandji. Manhar often assisted the duo in song recording. When the singer Mukesh was not immediately available, it was decided to dub the song in the voice of Udhas and later on Mukesh would sing over it. The song was 'aap se hum ko bichchade huye ek zamana beet gaya' for 1969 film Vishwas. When Mukesh heard the song he said that Udhas has sung the song perfectly and there was no need to record the song in his voice. The song became a hit. It proved to be turning point in his career.
Manhar has worked with many composers of the film world and has lent his voice to many Bollywood actors. He has sung for more than 300 films in different languages, including Gujarati, Hindi, Punjabi, Bengali and many others. He, like his younger brother Pankaj, is well known for singing Ghazals. He has released over 30 albums (last one, "Aashirwad", launched in Australia November 2013). He has also worked with Pankaj on albums and Live Shows. His 31st album Alankar was released at VadFest on 18 January 2015 at Vadodara. His latest album "Aakarshan" was launched on 5 May 2018 in Anand, Gujarat. He also sang for film, Kagaz Ki Nau (1978).
