Arijit Singh

Arijit Singh is the biggest gainer in our list, jumping 50 spots from Rank 65 last year. His rise can be attributed to an extremely successful and busy season in which he sang 48 songs in 31 films, including Airlift, Dilwale, Talvar, Mohenjo Daro, MS Dhoni: The Untold Story, Akira and Baaghi. Apart from this, he also sang for Ae Dil hai Mushkil and Kahaani 2, which do not fall within the period under review.
Fast Fact: Arijit Singh sang nine Bengali songs in 2016, most of them composed by Indraadip Das Gupta.
