Bollywood’s popular comedian actor, having acted in hundreds of movies, Mehmood’s son, Lucky Ali, who had gone into oblivion after giving several hit songs during the nineties till 2002, is back again in the news these days, after his vedio posted in social media by his fans having gone viral inviting infinite number of comments of appreciation of the one time rockstar of Indi pop.

Lucky Ali this time, however, is being seen old at the age of 62 with white beard playing on guitar and singing the song O” Sanam” with same dedication as used to sing years ago.

His fans all over the globe, especially the music n pop song lovers were amazed to see Lucky Ali back, singing again in this vedio posted in Instagram and Twitter followed by umpteen comments majority of them in full praise for their rockstar of the nineties.

A self made son of one time popular comedian actor of Bollywood Mehmood, Lucky Ali is reported to have never banked in his father’s popularity but became a singer with his own commitment, dedication n efforts having great adoration n love for music n sunging.

Today he allegedly does not seem to be in good health and financial prosperity having been entirely out of the scene for two decades with no body caring for him and his superb melodious voice especially in Bollywood, despite his being top actor Mehmood’s son and pop star of the nineties.

Once a popular singer and rockstar Lucky Ali had sung several top hits during the nineties with his fantastic mesmerising n melodious voice and outstanding music like EK Pal Ka Jeena, Anjaana Anjaani, Kabhi Aisa Lagta Hai, Na Tum Jaano Na Hum, O Sanam, Aa Bhi Jaa etc impressing one and all earning tremendous name and fame.

There has even demand by some of his fans to invite him in POPULAR KAPIL SHARMA SHOW in order to recognise his old outstanding talent and bring him before the people who’ve almost forgotten a super star of the nineties.

Though Lucky Ali never believed in popularising himself always being away from limelight, his diehard fans even today have immense respect for him, who want this one time singer to resurface in Bollywood not only to entertain his millions of fans but also to strengthen him financially n look after his health at the age of 62. According to dome of his diehard fans : Although Lucky Ali’s voice sounds aged, he has lost none of the hallmark melodious music. But what catches our attention is when he reaches the lines in the second stenza that goes ” MAR BHI GAYE TO BHOOL NA JANA,( Even if we die please don’t forget me”) Lucky abruptly stops singing for a while, before picking up the song again unambiguously describing his sorry state of affairs at 62 being, away from limelight rather going into oblivion for more than two decades with none of his fans, knowing, about his whereabouts.

One of his fans’ Keshav Chugh responds to his singing vedio posted by Gabbar : I had the pleasure of meeting him, few years ago. Incredible personality, humble and down to earth. He might not be a rockstar in today’s terms, but his music influenced an entire generation. He will always be a star for them wrote Chugh.

According to another fan Hemant S Trivedi : I feel every generation have rock stars and good music will always find its way to its audience. Lucky Ali’s high point was SURR (2002). He was definitely a super star at that time. Rock Star from 90’s when Indipop just boomed, there were many artists and audience had common taste said Trivedi.

Suketh Kumar Chinchela his another fan writes: I spent an evening with him here in Bhubaneswar, Oddisa, and it was over Dinner. What a man. What a humility. He is one of us. Much Like You, commending him for his modesty.
