Khandwa Memorial Kishore Kumar

 The house where he lived- decked up for the 90th birth anniversary- 2019, August 4th.



 The house is not in good shape, though, as these pics reveal.


 Bhakts at the memorial, where his ashes lie...and,  A portrait with him (below)


 The M.P. Govt. organises some festivities each year, on his anniversary.


 Ge ge geli zara Timbuktoo, Kathmandu Kathmandu geli hu.. a fun song he sang in Jhumroo.

 His bust at the memorial..a memorable visit for us.
