Suneeta Rao
Suneeta Rao is an Indian pop singer, playback singer, dancer and stage actress, popular for her songs sung in the 1980s and 1990s. Her most famous song is Paree Hoon Main from the album Dhuan (1991).
Suneeta Rao was born in Germany in a Telugu speaking family. Her father Dr DK Rao hailed from Krishna district Andhra Pradesh while her mother Komala Sista Rao hailed from West Godavari. She has two siblings Sister Aarti Rao and brother Narsimha Rao. She completed her schooling in Mumbai and higher studies at St. Xavier's College, Mumbai. During and after college, she acted in many plays such as Evita and musicals such as They're Playing Our Song and Greased Lightning.[citation needed]
Rao started her career with the song Suneeta Senorita in 1989. She became popular with the song "Paree Hoon main".
She released a Hindi pop album entitled Dhuan in 1991 with Gramophone Company India, which sold over 75,000 copies, with music by Lesle Lewis. The song and video of "Paree" from the album made Suneeta Rao a household name, leading the press to affectionately crown her[citation needed] the "Paree of the Masses".
Her early association with A. R. Rahman was "Adi Paru Mangatha", from the 1994 Tamil film May Madham. She released a Hindi pop album entitled Talaash in 1999 with Gramophone Company India, with music by Ranjit Barot.[citation needed]
Two videos that hit the screen were for the songs "Dehka Dehka" and "Kesariya", two folksy upbeat tracks that reinstated Rao at the top of the charts. She then released a new single and music video entitled "Chhoti Chhoti Baatein" as part of the Magnasound album A Reason To Smile on the occasion of 50 years of Indian Independence. She also featured in a group song in the album called "Wajah Muskurane Ki".[citation needed]
Besides going platinum, all the above albums were at the top of the Hindi music charts. Her album Ab Ke Baras has lilting, sensuous, joyous music that blends traditional folk music with modern production values.[citation needed]
Her career includes songs from films like Ghulam-e-Mustafa, Dulhan Hum Le Jayenge and Kahin Pyar Na Ho Jaye. Suneeta Rao also has shows in Pakistan and Africa in the offing, as well as several other projects for television, theatre and films.[citation needed]
