Currently she is one of the top playback singers in Bollywood - having sung for top actresses such as: Rekha, Sridevi, Madhuri Dixit, Karisma Kapoor, Kajol, Urmila Matondkar, Rani Mukherji, Aishwarya Rai, Sushmita Sen, Kareena Kapoor, Bipasha Basu, Priyanka Chopra, Katrina Kaif, Lara Dutta, Vidya Balan, Deepika Padukone, Sonam Kapoor, Asin, Anushka Sharma, Sonakshi Sinha, Parineeti Chopra and Alia Bhatt.
She started her singing career at a very early age of four. She participated in many competitions and made her presence felt. Her family soon shifted to Mumbai when Tabassum, a TV host spotted her talent and expressed to her parents that she could further her career if they went to Mumbai. She became quite famous through the various competitions she participated in. Her performances were telecast all over India through the National Television channel Doordarshan, through the music show Meri Aawaz Suno where she won the "Lata Mangeshkar Trophy" for the best female singer of India along with Pradip Somasundaran in the male category. This was the first such televised contest in India in 1996. Her first break in a Hindi film was in the film Shastra followed by Gang, Veergati, Dahek, Bade Dilwala, Raja Ki Aayegi Baraat, Shyam Benegal's Samar and the Vidhu Vinod Chopra film Mission Kashmir. She had no formal training before she entered into various national singing competitions. Lata Mangeshkar offered to train her when she won on the nationally-telecast "Meri Aawaz Suno"
Her singing career got a big boost when Sandeep Chowta gave her the first major break in Mast. After Mast there was no turning back. Sunidhi Chauhan had been getting lots of criticism for an extremely mature voice despite being young. However this criticism ended once Chameli came with her biggest song to date "Bhaage Re Mann" and today she and Nihira Joshi are known as the most versatile singers since Kavita Krishnamurthy and Asha Bhosle.

मैं मस्त मलंग

लहरों से मेरा याराना है
पल पल का आना जाना है
कोई दूर हो या नजदिक मेरे
हर दिल संग हर दिल संग
हर दिल संग हुआ
मैं मस्त मलंग
मैं मस्त मलंग
मैं मस्त मलंग हु
मैं एक पतंग
मैं एक पतंग
मैं एक पतंग हु
मैं एक पतंग

मैं एक पतंग हुआ
जो साथ घटा के उड़ती है
जो बात हवा से कार्ति है
उसकी फितरत है लहराना
मैं लहर तरंग
मैं लहर तरंग
मैं लहर तरंग हु
मैं लहर तरंग
मैं लहर तरंगो
मैं लहर तरंग हु
आज़ाद परिंदा कोई तू

आकाश तेरा घर जैसा है
सरहद भी नहीं मजब भी नहीं
तेरा तो खुदा ये कैसा है
मैं काम इश्क का पता हुआ
हर गम देखने पे देता हुआ
चलता रहता अपनी धुन में
बंदा में तंग

देखने में चीर दे धर नए
तूफान कभी तो लेहरो के
मिलते रहे असर नए
पानी सी रवानी है मेरी
बस इतनी कहानी है मेरी
रफ़्तार कभी ना मकम हो
मैं लहेर उमंग

मैं दिल को करदु बेकाबुस
मैं रंग बरंगा मौसम हुआ
रेशम से कोमल रेशम हुआ
है हवा कर रुख ये जिधर जिधर
मैं संग मैं संग

Urmila brought so much energy to Indian cinema in 90s. My favourite heroine.
@sirajislam9940
Urmila always gave such powerful voiceover rendition to Sunidhi songs.
Sandeep Chowta - a great potential never realised. He was way ahead of his time, like AR Rahman was at that time.
