Late Pamela Chopra Songs List:
Pamela Chopra officially started her singing career after she got married to Yash Chopra. The duo had an arrange-cum-love marriage and when Yash ji met her for the 2nd time, he had complimented her singing.
Talking about the incident, Pamela Chopra had once said –
“I think the first time I spoke to him was at Yashji’s niece’s wedding sangeet. I met him very briefly at first. He was too busy trying to convince Hema Malini to do a film. He and Hema were on the balcony the whole time. He came in only when the singing started. I was singing. He came up to me and complimented me on my singing. That was it.”
