He had a career breakthrough with Aamir Khan-Juhi Chawla starrer "Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak" in which he crooned songs like "Papa Kehte Hai" and "Ae Mere Humsafar". Taking to Instagram, the 64-year-old singer shared a video and said the industry has been "extremely kind" to him for giving him more than what he had hoped for. "It has given me everything and with people's blessings and love, today I am marking successful 40 years in the industry. My only aim was to make a place in Indian film and music industry and moreover to be in people's heart. "I am so grateful to my fans because of these guys today I have been honoured with Padma Shri and Padma Bhushan, and four National Award...," the singer said in the video. Narayan has done playback for most of the Bollywood stars, including Amitabh Bachchan, Aamir, Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar and Ajay Devgn.

Narayan said on his son, singer Aditya's insistence, he decided to launch his own YouTube channel. "Aditya, told me I was the most viewed male singing artist on YouTube this year and encouraged me to come and embrace it," he said. Aditya said it's the perfect time for the singer to connect with fans digitally. "I believe that it is the perfect time to begin this new journey and I have absolutely no doubt that his millions of fans all over the world are going to love the music and music videos on his channel," he added.
