Recalling his connection with late singer-composer Bappi Lahiri, singer Kailash Kher said that he had a "personal relationship" with him. He added, "My In-laws and Bappi Da were neighbours." "My wife has spent almost all of her childhood at his house. He always used to tell me 'Are tum to humara daamad hai' (You're my son-in-law)," he said.
