Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], August 4 : On the occasion of the 95th birth anniversary of legendary singer Kishore Kumar, actor Ayushmann Khurrana paid a heartfelt tribute to the late iconic singer.

Taking to his Instagram handle, he shared a video of himself accepting a challenge relating to the famous vocalist Kishore Kumar. Ayushmann can be seen guessing the song from the music played in the background.

Addressing himself as the 'Kishore Kumar Encyclopaedia', Ayushmann rightly guessed some of the singer's biggest chartbusters, including 'Wada Karo', 'Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas', 'Pyaar Deewana', 'Zindagi Ek Safar', 'O Saathi Re', and 'Pag Ghungroo Bandh'.

Furthermore, as soon as the soundtrack of 'Meri Pyaari Bindu' comes up, he not only gets it right but also observes how it is linked to his 2017 film 'Meri Pyaari Bindu' starring Parineeti Chopra.

He wrote in the caption, "Growing up with Kishore Da's music shaped and inspired my own love for singing melodies from the heart. His songs have been a source of comfort, joy, and inspiration throughout my life. Forever grateful to the legend...Happy Birthday Kishore Da"
