The man from the mountains, who doesn’t know Mohit Chauhan. A soulful voice behind songs from iconic films like Rang De Basanti, Jab We Met, Love Aajkal and Rockstar, he is one of the finest singers of the country. He was a part of the Silk Route band in the early days of his life. Breaking the stereotypes, his song Dooba Dooba became an overnight hit during that time and the band gained a lot of appreciation for its raw yet soulful music numbers.
A. R Rehman noticed Chauhan at a popular award function and he was called by the composer to sing “Khoon Chala” for the film Rang De Basanti. The song proved to be a breakthrough for him and since then there has been no looking back. In 2011, Rehman and Chauhan reunited for Rockstar where all the 9 songs were sung by Mohit Chauhan. If that wasn’t all, he also recorded for the voice of Jordan, the character played by Ranbir Kapoor in the film. In no time, the man from mountains was a national heartthrob that indeed, he still continues to be so.
Adding to his fame, Mohit has recently sung a very soulful beautiful song titled “1978” from the series Barun Rai And The House On the CliffтАЭ.
After its huge success in the UK, the series is being streamed on Eros Now in India. Besides Priyanshu Chatterjee, Nyra Banerjee and Sid Makkar, the film also stars international actors George Dawson, Tony Richardson and Emma Galliano.
Shot in some exotic locations in the UK and also under some harsh conditions, the series has received a tremendous response both from the audiences as well the critics.
An ardent animal and nature lover, Mohit has been very lucky with the kind of response and love he has received from his fans. Just like the success of every song he has lent his voice to, he is certain that his song тАЬ1978тАЭ will also prove to be a milestone in his enchanting musical journey.
