Did this poor imitation of Kishore Kumar ever have a golden period? He along with Anuradha Paudwal were unleashed on Film music lovers by the imitation champion Gulshan Kumar.

To give you an analogy....If the original i-phone costs you $100, then the made in china duplicate(called Hi-Phone) costs you $10.
Kumar Sanu and Anuradha Paudwal are Hi-Phones..And luckily they have faded away from the music scene.

Interestingly all poor imitations have always failures in Film music. CH Atma (KL Saigal). Mohd Aziz (Rafi),Nitin Mukesh (Mukesh).

Singers who started out as mimics but evolved into good singers in my opinion are Mano (SPB) and Mahendra Kapoor (Rafi)

So in summary, in my opinion, Sanu was just a poor imitation and mimic of Kishore and he was lucky to get the kind of fame that he had.
