Bappi Lahiri: King of Bollywood disco dies at 69

Bappi Lahiri King of Bollywood disco dies at 69
The music composer, known for his groovy disco tunes and iconic style, has died at the age of 69.

In an ironical twist, in 2002, he ended up suing rap legend Dr Dre, hip-hop artist Truth Hurts and producer DJ Quick for using a snippet from a song he had composed for a 1981 Bollywood film. Eventually he shared a credit on the song, so "its ok, and I am happy", he said.
