Mahendra Kapoor's legacy lives in son Ruhan's vocal chords
Singer Mahendra Kapoor’s son Ruhan Kapoor may have sung in hundreds of concerts, but there is one concert that will always be very close to his heart. This concert was held recently at Amritsar, the birthplace of Mahendra Kapoor. Says Ruhan Kapoor, “This opportunity to celebrate dad’s life at his birthplace took me back in time.”
Ruhaan admits that this homecoming, where amazing singers from Punjab, including doctors, advocates, businessmen and technicians rendered one Mahendra Kapoor song after another with love and reverence, had him and his wife Neerja in tears. He adds, “Each of them sang well. It was not easy to sing on stage with tears in my eyes.”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now
in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is
run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.
The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any
bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and
partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense
of the term.
The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
