Lata Mangeshkar returns home, sister Asha says ‘I was looking at her last night, so many songs came rushing to me’

Asha Bhosle reveals her emotions as she welcomed sister and legendary singer Lata Mangeshkar home after 28 days of hospitalisation.

Legendary singer Lata Mangeshkar, who had been hospitalised for 28 days, returned home last week and thanked fans for their love and support. Her sister and Bollywood singer Asha Bhsole has now confirmed Lata is “hale and hearty”, adding that she was so emotional looking at her sister that her songs “came rushing” to her.

Asha Bhosle talks fondly about her sister Lata Mangeshkar who returned from hospital after almost a month.

Lata was admitted to the Breach Candy Hospital, Mumbai after she complained of difficulty in breathing three weeks ago and was diagnosed with pneumonia. She returned home on Sunday.

A Mid Day report quoted Asha as saying, “We were all there for her homecoming. She is back and we are overjoyed. She is looking hale and hearty. I was looking at her last night, and at once, so many songs that she has made immortal with her voice came back rushing to me.”

In the interview, Asha also talked about remixes and told the tabloid, “If the remix is good, I enjoy it. But that’s not the case every time. It is easy to remix old songs because these composers are not attached to the tune. But they should ask the original composer. We have put in so much effort while making it. I hope the new composers understand the hard work [we put in] before destroying it. That’s the reason I avoid listening to the radio.”
