Dev Negi is the protagonist of a true Bollywood rags-to-riches story. Hailing from a small Uttarakhandi village, with a rare voice and lofty dreams, he worked hard to earn his spot as one of Mumbai’s biggest playback stars. He’s perhaps best known for the fan favourites he’s sung for A-lister Varun Dhawan, like the dance-floor-ready “Badri Ki Dulhania” or the tongue-in-cheek rework of “Chalti Hai Kya 9 Se 12”. But it’s gleeful hits like the celebratory “Mumbai Dilli Ki Kudiyaan”, from Student of the Year 2, or Simmba’s energetic “Aala Re Aala” that showcase the singer’s growth and range.
