Ik Tara (Punjabi: ਇਕ ਤਾਰਾ), also spelled as Iktara or sometimes Ektara', was the first LP record of Kuldeep Manak released by HMV in 1976.[1][2] It was released after about one year of recording as the record manager of HMV, Zaheer Ahmad, delayed[3] its release as he was frightened the record would not do well in the market.

The songs are:

  • Tere Tille Ton (Kali)
  • Chheti Kar Sarwan Bachcha
  • Chithian Sahiban Jatti Ne
  • Mere Yaar Nu Manda Na Bolin
  • Kaulan
  • Garh Mughlane Dian Naaran

Response

The record was a huge success[3] specially the kali, Tere Tille Ton, established Manak as Kalian Da Badshah[1][5] (English: King of Kalis) although he sang only about 13 kalis in his career.
