Mithun's voice no more

In this film was a song that everyone fell in love with: Krishna Dharti Pe Aaja Tu sung by one Nandu Bhende. Son of the Marathi actor-director Atmaram Bhende and Dr Asha Bhende who became known as Lily Ezekiel after marriage and nephew of poet Nissim Ezekiel, Nandu whose voice with a fascinating bass could explore genres as diverse as rock, blues and soul also sang in films such as Chamatkar, Zakhm and Shankarabharanam. But the average person will always remember for his song from Disco Dancer, although those who had followed his career closely know him best as the performer who played both Jesus and Judas in two different versions of the theatre production Jesus Christ Superstar.
