Singer-composer and 'Disco King' Bappi Lahiri has died aged 69, his family said Wednesday.

The legendary singer was fond of gold and My India News cites an election affidavit that was filed in 2014 and claims that Bappi Da had about 754 grams of gold.

Moreover, as reported by caknowledge.com, Bappi Da had a net worth of Rs 22 crore. Reportedly, the singer used to charge Rs 8 to 10 lakh for a song in films.

He also used to earn via live concerts and by judging television reality shows. Bappi Lahiri also brought a luxury house in Mumbai in 2001.

If reports are to be believed, the price of this property is Rs 3.5 crore. Moreover, Bappi Da is also said to have properties in several other cities of the country.

Bappi Lahiri was also very fond of cars. The singer had five cars which also included BMW and Audi among others. He also owned a Tesla X which is worth Rs 55 lakh.

Bappi Lahiri was full of life and was known for his happy-go-lucky avatar. The singer-composer-politician died today due to obstructive sleep apnea at Mumbai's CritiCare Hospital.

Apart from his songs, one thing he was very well-known for was his jewellery. Every time Bappi Lahiri used to make a public appearance, he had these grand gold chains around his neck.

After Bappi da's demise, an old interview by Bombay Times has resurfaced on the internet. In the interview, Bipasha had expressed her will to “rob" Bappi Lahiri of his jewellery.

While talking about the musician, Bipasha had described him as an “amazing person" and said: “And every time I see him, I want to rob him of his jewellery. He wears such lovely gold jewellery; it’s full of these little Gods, and that’s something I absolutely love."

When Bappi Lahiri heard of Bipasha's interview, he reacted in a way that left everyone in splits. During an appearance for a media event, Bappi Da was told about Bipasha's wish, to which he laughed and called her a “sweet" person. He added: “Woh aise maange, main de dunga. Chori karna nahi padega, le lo (If she will ask, I will just give it to her. She won’t have to steal, she can just take it).”
