Veteran singer and music composer Bappi Lahiri's passing away in Mumbai at the age of 69 came as a shock to many. The man was known for his love for gold and was known as the Gold Man of India.
He made disco music popular in the country in the '80s and '90s and breathed his last at Mumbai's CritiCare Hospital after being treated for multiple ailments.
Dr Deepak Namjoshi, director of the hospital, told PTI, "Lahiri had been admitted to the hospital for a month and was discharged on Monday. But his health deteriorated on Tuesday and his family called for a doctor to visit their home. He was brought to the hospital. He had multiple health issues. He died due to OSA (obstructive sleep apnea) shortly before midnight".

The singer's sudden death prompted many fans to pay their tribute and respect to the legendary personality on social media. Among the many fans, there is an ITBP constable who paid his last respects by singing one of his famous songs.
