His best known pieces include his solo and duet songs with Geeta Dutt in O.P. Nayyar debut film Aasmaan (1952),[4] and his non-film recording of "Preetam Aan Milo".[5]

He has sung duets with singers like Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosle.[6] But his career was short in Bollywood as brief as just 10 years.[7]

He also acted in two movies as hero, namely, 'Bhaisahab' (1954) (with Poornima and Smriti Biswas) and 'Bilwamangal' (with Suraiya) (1954)[8]

Personal life

C.H. Atma was the elder brother of the popular singer, Chandru Atma.[9]
