She was 89. The veteran singer was known for her work in Hindi, Marathi and several other Indian languages during the golden era of film music from the 1950s to the 1970s. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Born on 28th January 1937 in Dhaka, Bangladesh, her voice closely resembled that of Lata Mangeshkar, leading many listeners to mistake her songs for Lata\u2019s. There may be no better endorsement for a woman playback singer than being mistaken for Lata Mangeshkar. There possibly cannot be a longer shadow to live under either. For most of her career, playback singer Suman Kalyanpur lugged both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"440\" height=\"247\" src=\"https:\/\/theindianview.in\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/189642.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1246\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theindianview.in\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/189642.jpg 440w, https:\/\/theindianview.in\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/189642-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/theindianview.in\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/189642-390x220.jpg 390w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 440px) 100vw, 440px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether it was the playful \u2018Na na karte pyar\u2019 (Jab Jab Phool Khile, 1965), the longing in \u2018Ajhun na aaye baalma\u2018 (Saanjh aur Savera, 1964), the soft romance of \u2018Na tum humein jaano\u2019 (Baat ek Raat ki, 1962) or the exuberance of the utterly delightful \u2018Aaj kal tere mere pyar ke charche\u2019 (Brahmachari, 1968), Kalyanpur came to be known as a singer without any excess and with a clear and clean tone. Kalyanpur sang two duets with Lata before her own songs became popular. Kabhi aaj kabhi kal in the Balraj Sahni-starrer Chand (1959) was a Hemant Kumar composition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/theindianview.in\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/189641.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1247\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theindianview.in\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/189641.jpg 400w, https:\/\/theindianview.in\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/189641-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/theindianview.in\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/189641-390x220.jpg 390w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>She made her Hindi film debut in the mid-1950s and went on to record hundreds of songs with legendary composers and singers, especially Mohammed Rafi.
