More about him:
Kulwinder Dhillon passed away at the age of 32 in a car accident on 19th March 2006, in India, Punjab.
He started his career with the album, Kacheriyan Ch Mela Lagde, that also had the hit boliyan that everyone heard but didn't know the singer. Kulwinder Dhillon made his career with his smash hit album College in 2003 which featured the title song College, that had made waves in India, and still is. But the most popular song off the album was Kalli Kithe Mil. Though this was not a fast paced tune; the album was redone later for an international release and the song was converted to a hardcore bhangra song.
Kalli Kithe Mil made Kulwinder Dhillon widely popular as he was mistaken at times for Bindrakhia with the particular tune. He later released Velli in 2005 that had just built upon his success with College. It became an instant hit and had music videos for almost every song. The album was enjoyed by all throughout the world and nothing had to be changed to appeal to the international crowd. Most of the lyrics he sang for the albums were by Balvir Boparai who is famous for Nanane Goriye, aka De Leg Geda. He was becoming quite popular recently, before this tragedy set upon us.
