Asha Bhosle is an Indian playback legendary singer who is known for her versatility and style of singing. She is not only talented but a versatile singer. MY favourite song from her collection of songs is ‘O mere Shona re,’ from Teesari Manzil. She brings a lot of spunk and energy to any song she sings. I got a call to be a part of the legendary Asha Bhosle’s Birthday celebrations a few days back.

This was something which made me very happy as she is my favourite singer. I am sure she is everyone’s favourite singer in our country. I am happy to spread the news of the grand celebrations of her 84th Birthday.
