His song ''Dhol Jagiro Da'' also became a huge hit and giving him wide popularity. In the late 1990s, however as he was growing his voice started changing, which lessened his popularity.

Around 2005, singer Jasbir Jassi introduced him to music director Sandeep Chowta, who subsequently called him to Delhi to record single ''Sajni'' in Sony Music album ''Teri Sajni''.
