Singer-Composer Leslee Lewis makes Bollywood playback comeback after 26 years Veteran singer-composer Leslee Lewis is set to make a comeback as a playback singer in Hindi cinema after a gap of 26 years, marking a significant moment in his long musical journey. Known for shaping India’s Indi-pop movement in the 1990s, Lewis is returning with the song Zorr Ka Dhakka, which will mark his re-entry into Bollywood playback singing. Lewis rose to national fame as part of the iconic duo Colonial Cousins alongside Hariharan.
