She may have turned 82 today, but no singer in India connects to the youth the way Asha Bhosle does with her music. Having started her career very early in life, Bhosle is credited to have sung some of the most evergreen cabaret and dance numbers in Hindi cinema.
Asha, whose musical prowess has been proven by songs like 'Dil cheez kya hai', 'Dum maro dum' and 'Piya tu ab toh aaja', took to Twitter to share that she is out on a tour in the US.
"Just arrived in NYC. Thank you once again for your love and kind wishes. Looking forward to performing in New Jersey on 13 September," the Padma Vibhushan awardee tweeted.
With over six decades of singing in multiple languages, Asha is one of the most regarded music artistes across the world. A master of a variety of genres, she has performed several times on foreign shores and even once collaborated with cricketer Brett Lee for a song.
While we all love the songs she has sung in films, on her birthday here is a list of some of the pop and remix songs that the singer sung in the 1990s.
Asha was wished on Twitter by her elder sister and India's nightingale Lata Mangeshkar, who shared some of their childhood memories via photographs with their fans.
Thanking her "didi", Asha tweeted: "Didi's ashirvad is always with me but this time it's special since I'm far away on tour in USA and her support and guidance is invaluable."
