user comments = “”"‘KULDEEP MANAK’ aka Kaliyan Da Badshah has passed away at the age of 62. It is the saddest day in the history of Punjabi music as the most successful and loved artist of all time is no more.
His contribution to the Punjabi music is unparallelled. We have lost a golden voice today.
May his soul Rest In Peace”"”"
Manak left Bathinda and went to Ludhiana to pursue his career as a singer.He started singing with the duo Harcharan Grewal and Seema. When they came to Delhi, a music company official spotted Manak and asked him to record the song Jija Akhian Na Maar Ve Main Kall Di Kurhi (written by Babu Singh Maan Mararawala) with Seema. His first record features this song along with Laung Karaa Mittra, Machhli Paunge Maape (written by Gurdev Singh Maan). This record was a runaway success. He started an office at Bathinda along with writer Dilip Singh Sidhu, but did not stay there for long and returned to Ludhiana. The writer Hardev Dilgir (also known as Dev Thrikewala) spotted Manak at one of his live performances and penned Lok Gathavan (Folk/old Stories) for him.
His first album, ‘Teri Khatir Heere’, was released by HMV. In 1976 his first LP was released called ‘Ik Tara’. It included the songs ‘Tere Tilley Ton’, ‘Chheti Kar Sarwan Bachcha’ and ‘Garh Mughlane Dian Naaran’. Further albums included ‘Sahiban Da Tarla’ (1978), ‘Ichhran Dhaahan Maardi’ and ‘Sahiban Bani Bharaawan Di’ (1978). Many singers in Punjab take care in what they eat, be it hot, cold or pickle, Manak keeps an attitude of eat what you get and eats any type of pickle. Manak also tried to run as a member of parliament in Punjab and did not win.
The self proclaimed Crown Prince of Bhangra, Jazzy B said in the track “Jadu (Rambo)”: “Main Manak Da Chela, Dass Doon Aal Dawaale Nu, Meri Umar Vi Lagg Jey Jandu Littranwale Nu”. “I am Manak’s disciple (he is my Ustaad/Guru/Teacher), tell everyone and everything I hope that Jandu Littranwala (Lyricist) lives with my age added onto his (Paying homage).”
Jazzy B is a huge fan of Kuldeep Manak as are many other Punjabi artists, fans and admirers. Gurdas Maan paid tribute to Kuldeep Manak in his song “Pind Dian Galiyan” with line “Manak hadd muka giya naviyaan kaliyaan di..” roughly translated to “Kuldeep Manak broke all limits of traditional Punjabi Kali.”
