MUMBAI: Bappi Lahiri, famous Indian musician and composer, has passed away in Mumbai.

As per news agency PTI, the veteran singer suffered multiple diseases before he breathed his last on Tuesday at Mumbai’s CritiCare Hospital in Juhu. He was 69.

Dr Deepak Namjoshi, director of the hospital, evaluated: “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,”
