Geeta Dutt (Bengali: গীতা দত্ত) (November 23, 1930 – July 20, 1972) was an Indian playback singer, considered one of the best to have hit the Indian film world. Geeta Dutt was born into a rich zamindaar's family as Geeta Ghosh Roy Chowdhuri in Faridpur, East Bengal in 1930. In 1942, her parents shifted to a Dadar apartment in Bombay when she was twelve. Over there in their modest flat at Dadar, composer/music director Hanuman Prasad, overheard her singing casually and agreed to impart her training in singing.
