September had both Asha Bhosle and Lata Mangeshkar’s birthdays (quite a spate of birthdays, really !). Both accomplished singers, the two sisters celebrated their birthdays on the 8th (Asha – she turns 77) and the 28th (Lata – she turns 81). Here are a few favorite songs which probably wouldn’t have sounded as good in anyone else’s voice. In the first, the fabulous Rekha from the film “Umrao Jaan”, given voice by Asha Bhosle :
And here, a very young Amitabh and Jaya Bhaduri in “Abhimaan”, which was a fantastic film by itself. Lata’s songs only added to the charm.
