Darshan Kumar played an important role in the growth of T-Series, the music label established by his brother Gulshan Kumar in 1983. Over the years, the company grew into one of India's biggest music giants and also expanded into film production.
While T-Series is now led by chairman Bhushan Kumar along with Krishan Kumar, Darshan Kumar held a senior position in the company in earlier years. Despite his significant contribution, he preferred to stay away from the limelight and maintained a low public profile.
His death marks the end of an era for the T-Series family, and he is remembered for his support to artists and his role in shaping the music industry.
