Udit Narayan is a fabulous singer. He is one of the few
great singers in the history of Bollywood who have sung for multiple
generations. From Dev Anand to Shaahid Kapoor and from Kaader Khaan to Paresh
Raval, and from Rajnikaant to Naagarjuna,
Udit Narayan has covered the length and breadth of music Industry. Most
of his songs are still not available on mediums like YouTube. And there would
be many songs that he would have recorded for other equally or perhaps more
prominent artists that those listed below. I have attempted to recall some
amazing songs that Udit Narayan has sung fro various artists of Bollywood Film
Industry. I agree in advance that I must have missed many songs that should
have been listed here.

Dev Anand
Movie – Main Solah Baras Ki
Song – Zindagi ke sur se sur youn milaaiye
Singer – Udit Narayan
Dev Ananad is singing a song on the phone. This actually is a Ghazal. Style of Dev Anand is somewhat easy to imitate but the same cannot be said about his singing style. It was Mohammed Rafi and Kishore Kumar, who had mastered this art. However, Udit Narayan too did a decent job in this awesome Ghazal.
Amitabh Bachchan
Movie – Deewar
Song – Leke aayi hai hawaayein
Singer – Udit Narayan, Roop Kumar Rathore, and Chorus
Udit has beautifully rendered his golden voice for the actor
of the millennium Shri Amitabh Bachchan. The song needed a pain to be elucidated
and Udit Narayan who is master of expressing emotions through his amazing soft
and yet powerful voice has done it beautifully. There’s another song in the
movie called Todenge Deewar hum which again has been rendered by Udit Narayan.

Praan
Movie – Maa Beti 1987
Song – Baje Badhayee More Angana
Singers – Suresh Wadkar and Udit Narayan
Suresh Wadkar sings for Shashi Kapoor and then Udit Narayan
takes over for legendary actor Praan. A happy song set in a a large house has Hindi
and Sanskrit lyrics. Udit Narayan was new to the industry at that time still he
performed it very well.

Movie – Sivaaji – The Boss
Song – Suhana samaa kar to do
Singers – Udit Narayan and Chinmayi
Udit Narayan had crossed boundaries of languages years ago.
He sings in more than 30 Indian languages and has thousands of songs to his
credit. This song was originally recorded in south movie Sivaaji – The Boss which
was dubbed in Hindi. It was a blockbuster movie in which legendary Rajnikaant
was acting with Shriya Saran.

Naagarjuna
Movie – Mr. Bechara
Song – Jaanam meri Jaanam
Singers – Udit Narayan and Alka Yagnik
Nagarjuna’s personality and voice texture very much resemble
to that of Udit Narayan. His hardcore looks, masculine voice, and a sweet lover’s
image needs a voice like of Udit Narayan. This is why Udit Narayan would have
not needed to modify his voice much when he recorded for Nagarjuna.

Paresh Rawal
Movie – Raavan Raj
Song – Husn WaaloN se
Singer – Udit Narayan and Chorus
Paresh Rawal does not sync his lips with playback generally.
He is a top notch character actor. But this song from Raavan Raj was the chartbuster
of that time. Udit Narayan has the ability to match his voice with the onscreen
actor and this song is a great example of that quality of Udit.

Kaader Khan
Movie – Unnes Bees
Song – Mil Gayaa
Singers – Mohammed Rafi, Udit Narayan, Usha Mangeshkar, and
Chorus
Chorus
This one song set the stage for Udit Narayan in the
Bollywood. This was also perhaps the only song in which Udit Narayan was
singing behind mic beside his childhood icon and legendary Mohammed Rafi. The
part of Mithoon Chakraborthy was sung by Rafi saab while Udit’s voice was used
for Kaader Khan.
