1. Tum Hi Ho wouldn't be the same without him
This song officially put the spotlight on him. And in hindsight, can you imagine anyone else singing the track? No way, right?

2. He's the voice of romance
Be it the heart-rending Phir Le Aaya Dil from Barfi or Samjhawan from Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania, nobody does romance like him.

3. He's as versatile as they come
If he can woo you with his romantic numbers, he can rock a party too. Remember Sooraj Dooba Hai from Roy?
4. His vocals are unparalleled
There is no denying that his soulful voice has found a place in millions of hearts. He's what we call inimitable!
5. He's every music director's favourite
From Pritam (Cocktail, Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani) to Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy (2 States) to Vishal-Shekhar (Chennai Express), every music composer swears by him. With good reason, of course.
