Anup Jalota on leading 2.7 lakh Hanuman Chalisa chants, AR Rahman's remarks and why instant fame doesn't last: 'Music belongs to everyone'
For over four decades, Anup Jalota has remained one of India's most celebrated voices in devotional music, earning the title of the 'Bhajan Samrat' while touching millions through his soulful renditions. Now, on July 5, the legendary singer is preparing for one of the biggest spiritual gatherings of his career as he leads more than 2,70,000 collective chants of the Hanuman Chalisa at Chinmaya Mission South Africa's historic Man to Hanuman celebrations in Durban, marking 75 years of the Chinmaya Movement under the guidance of Swami Abhedananda.
