It remains unaware of itself
Hoshwalla Bhi Hosh Khota Hai
Only one with awareness can imagine that beauty

(Parde Mein Rehne Do Parda Na Uthao)2
Under my veil there is such a beauty
Parda Jo Uth Gaya To Bhedh Khul Jayega
Lifting it you will be mesmerised

Strange shadows reside in your paths

Ye pal ujaala hai baaqi andhera hai
This very moment is lit-up, rest is in darkness
Ye pal gawaana na ye pal hi tera hai
Do not waste this moment, this moment is yours only
Jeene waale soch le yahi waqt hai kar le puri aarzoo
Think of the living soul, this is right moment to fulfill your desires

Is pal ke aage hi har shae fasaana hai
In this moment our wishes are stories
Kal kisne dekha hai kal kisne jaana hai
Who has seen tomorrow, who has known tomorrow
Is pal se paayega jo tujhko paana hai
You will find in this moment whatever you have to find
Jeene waale soch le yahi waqt hai kar le puri aarzoo
Think o living soul, this is right moment to fulfill your desires

Aage bhi jaane na tu, peechhe bhi jaane na tu

Asha Bhosle is believed to have sung over 12,000 songs. Though her sister, Lata Mangeshkar was featured in the Guinness Book of World Records during 1974-1991, for having sung the most songs in the world, reputed sources have introduced concerns to its veracity, claiming that the Guinness counts were exaggerated and Bhosle has recorded more songs than Mangeshkar. Bhosle herself pointed out that she has sung the maximum recordings by any singer - 12,000.

Taking me, he goes far away
Mere ghoonghta ko khole, methe methe bol bole
He opens my veil, he utters sweet sweet words
Arre mere rabba main kee kara

Asha Bhosle was born in the small hamlet of Goar in Sangli, Maharashtra, into the musical Marathi family of Pandit Deenanath Mangeshkar. Her father was a theater actor and classical singer who had been born in the village of Mangeshi in Goa. When she was nine years old, her father died. The family moved from Pune to Kolhapur and then to Bombay. She and her elder sister Lata Mangeshkar began singing and acting in films to support their family. She sang her first film song Chala Chala Nav Bala for the Marathi movie Majha Bal (1943). The music for the film was composed by Datta Dawjekar. She made her Hindi film debut when she sang the song Saawan aaya for Hansraj Behl's Chunariya (1948).

ASHA BHOSLE: TOP 51 HITS

At the age of 16, she eloped with 31-year old Ganpatrao Bhosle (1916-1966), marrying him against her family's wishes. Ganpatrao was sister Lata's personal secretary. The marriage failed miserably. Her husband and in-laws mistreated her. After a few years of marriage, Bhosle was turned out (around 1960) by a suspicious Ganpatrao and she went to her maternal home with two children and pregnant with her third child, Anand. She continued to sing in films to earn money.

Young and insentitive to her family's wishes, and after two children, one would have thought that would have been the end to her troubles but this came back to haunt her as a mistake that anyone could have made.

ASHA BHOSLE: TOP 51 HITS

Prominent playback singers like Geeta Dutt, Shamshad Begum and Lata Mangeshkar (her sister) monopolized the singing for the "heroine" roles and the big films, whilst Asha Bhosle used to get the assignments they did not take: singing for the bad girls and vamps, or songs in the second-grade movies. In the 1950s, she sang more songs than any other playback singer in Bollywood, yet most of these were in low budget B or C-grade films. Her earliest songs were composed by A R Qureshi, Sajjad Hussain and Ghulam Mohammed, most of which failed to do well. Singing in Dilip Kumar-starrer Sangdil (1952), composed by Sajjad Hussain, she got reasonable recognition. Consequently, film director Bimal Roy gave her a chance to sing in Parineeta (1953). Raj Kapoor signed her to sing the song Nanhe Munne Bachche with Mohammed Rafi in Boot Polish (1954), which gained popularity.

O. P. Nayyar gave Asha Bhosle a big break in C.I.D. (1956). She first achieved success in B. R. Chopra's Naya Daur (1957), composed by him. His collaboration with Bhosle produced many hits. Later, she established herself and received patronage of composers such as Sachin Dev Burman and Ravi. Bhosle and Nayyar had a professional and personal parting of ways in the 1970s.

ASHA BHOSLE: TOP 51 HITS
 
In 1966, Asha's performance in the duets from music director R D Burman's first successful movie, Teesri Manzil won popular acclaim. Their collaboration produced numerous hits in the 1970s and resulted in a marriage. In 1960s and 1970s, she became the voice of Bollywood's most famous dancer, Helen. It is said that Helen would attend her recording sessions so that she could understand the song better and plan dance steps accordingly.[citation needed] Some of the most popular Asha Bhosle-Helen numbers are Piya Tu Ab To Aaja (Caravan), O Haseena Zulfon Wali (Teesri Manzil), and Yeh Mera Dil (Don).

In Umrao Jaan (1981) and Ijaazat (1987), she sang traditional ghazals and proved her versatility, winning the coveted National Film Award for Best Female Playback Singer.

Her film activities continued into the 1990s. Her performance in the 1995 hit Rangeela was particularly notable. As late as 2005, 72-year-old Asha Bhosle's numbers for the Tamil film Chandramukhi and the pop song Lucky Lips for Salman Khan-starrer Lucky were chartbusters. Some of the other popular Tamil songs sung by Bhosle are Oh! Butterfly, September Maadham and Vennila Vennila.

ASHA BHOSLE: TOP 51 HITS
Umrao Jaan, 1981

By 1980s, Asha Bhosle had been stereotyped as a "cabaret singer" and a "pop crooner". In Rekha-starrer Umrao Jaan, she sang ghazals like Dil cheez kya hai, In aankhon ki masti ke, Ye kya jagah hai doston and Justju jiski thi. The songs proved her capable of doing fairly serious songs. The music director Khayyam, had lowered her pitch by half a note. Asha herself was surprised that she could sing so differently. The ghazals won her the first National Award of her career and proved her versatility.

Will feature a few from the film 'Umrao Jaan' later on.

Ashaji on her recieving the Filmfare Lifetime Achievement Award

I consider Filmfare Awards as the most prestigious because they're based on the public's choice--and for me their love and appreciation is foremost. I have also seen this award take birth and grow in popularity both here and abroad. I've been honoured with seven playback awards. I was awarded a special trophy a few years ago, at the insistence of the public, for the Rangeela song years after I had stepped out of the competition. This Lifetime Achievement Award has come to me at a time when I still have the enthusiasm and energy to do a lot many things in music ranging from Indian classical to Indipop. Filmfare and The Times of India group have given me just the right impetus, that encouragement to go on.

Filmfare Awards
Ashaji was the only singer who was able to compete with Lata Mangeshkar, she won the filmfare award consecutively in 1967 & 1968 when Lata still used to accept the Filmfare Award. After 1969, with Lata giving up the Filmfare award the coast was clear for Asha Bhosle and she went on to win the award 7 times which is the maximum any female singer ever won.She gave up the award after 1977. Though Kishore Kumar won the maximum number of filmfare awards, it was because unlike the Mangeshkar sisters he never refused the award. So if we compare till 1977 Asha had won the maximum number of filmfare awards ( Male & Female).

1967 - Garibon Ki Suno [DUS LAKH]

ASHA BHOSLE: TOP 51 HITS

Incidentally the other top female playback singer to won the Filmfare Award for seven times, was Alka Yagnik

Alka had the most nominations for her songs numbering 37

Asha Bhosle and Alka Yagnik, with 7 wins each, hold the record for most awards in this category. Lata Mangeshkar, Anuradha Paudwal, Kavita Krishnamurthy and Shreya Ghoshal have won the award four times. Bhosle won the award in a record of four consecutive years (1972-75), followed by the three consecutive wins of Paudwal (1991-1993), Krishnamurthy (1995-1997) and Yagnik (2000-2002), respectively.

Two singers have achieved the feat of receiving all the nominations of this category in a particular year: Asha Bhosle was the single nominee in 1973, having all the three nominations to her credit, and Alka Yagnik was the single nominee in 1994, having all the four nominations to her credit, one of which she shared--and eventually jointly won--with Ila Arun. Yagnik's four nominations in that year along with Bhosle's four out of the five nominations in 1975 also give them the record for most number of Best Female Playback Singer nominations in a single year.

ASHA BHOSLE: TOP 51 HITS

It must be noted that in 1971, Lata Mangeshkar made the unusual gesture of giving up the Filmfare Best Female Playback Award, in order to promote fresh talent. After receiving the award in 1979, Asha Bhosle emulated her elder sister and requested that her name not be considered for the nominations thereafter.

(Saakeyan, Aaj Mujhe Neend Nahinn Ayegee
I shall not feel sleep heavy upon my eyes
Sunaa Hain Tere Mahafil Mein Ras Jaga Hain)2
Listen my gathering, the glittering night is vibrant
Aankhon Aankhon Mein Yoon Hee Raat Gujar Jayege
Throughout the night we shall unblinkingly gaze
Sunaa Hain Teree Mahafil Mein Ras Jagaa Hain
Listen my gathering, the glittering night is vibrant

Saakee Hain Aaur Shaam Bhee, Ulafata Kaa Jaam Bhee
Wine in the night and then there is the spell of love
Takadeer Hain Usee Kee Jo Le In Se Kaam Bhee
Picture he who profits from this magic is so fortunate
(Ranga-ye-mahafeel Hain Raatabhar Ke Liye)2
The colorful enchantment will endure the night long
(Sochanaa Kyaa Abhee Sahar Ke Liye)2
Why should we worry about the coming of the dawn
Teraa Jalawaa Ho, Teree Soorat Ho
If I can envisage that gaze on the face
(Aaur Kyaa Chaaheeye Najar Ke Liye)2
And what more can I desire?
Aaj Soorat Teree Beparda Najar Aayegee
Your soul and spirt will be revealed to me

(Saakeyan, Aaj Mujhe Neend Nahinn Ayegee
I shall not feel sleep heavy upon my eyes
Sunaa Hain Tere Mahafil Mein Ras Jaga Hain)2

Throughout the night we shall unblinkingly gaze
Sunaa Hain Teree Mahafil Mein Ras Jagaa Hain
Listen my gathering, the glittering night is vibrant

Mohabbat Mein Jo Mit Jaataa Hain, Wo Kuchh Kah Naheen Sakataa
Those consumed by the fire of love, have lost control of their destiny
Ye Wo Koochaa Jis Mein Dil Salaamat Rah Naheen Sakataa
Kisakee Duniyaan Yahaan Tabaah Naheen
Kaun Hain Jis Ke Lab Pe Aag Naheen
Us Par Dil Jarur Aayegaa, Jis Ke Bachane Kee Koee Raah Naheen
Jindagee Aaj Najar Milate Hee Loot Jaayegee
Sunaa Hain Tere Mahafil Mein Ras Jaga Hain)2
Listen my gathering, the glittering night is vibrant

(Saakeyan, Aaj Mujhe Neend Nahinn Ayegee
I shall not feel sleep heavy upon my eyes
Sunaa Hain Tere Mahafil Mein Ras Jaga Hain)2
Listen my gathering, the glittering night is vibrant
Aankhon Aankhon Mein Yoon Hee Raat Gujar Jayege
Throughout the night we shall unblinkingly gaze
Sunaa Hain Teree Mahafil Mein Ras Jagaa Hain
Listen my gathering, the glittering night is vibrant

An Interview done years ago by Ashaji

It's noon at her Peddar Road flat in Mumbai. Asha Bhosle is in the kitchen, in a light pink housecoat. She loves to cook, this quintessential Maharashtrian housewife. A "simple, homely woman" as she describes herself, she often goes to the market with her daughter-in-law Anuja to buy vegetables and fish. Ashaji spoke about how her life centres on her family and her music, her marital life and her relationship with her elder sister Lata Mangeshkar.
Excerpts:

What motivates you to sing at this age?

I constantly need something new and challenging. We saw someone encashing on my old popular song (Chura liya), so we thought why shouldn't I do it. My family, especially my younger son Anand, pushed me.

How is your voice still so young?

Riyaz (practice), 45 minutes every day. Actually, you sound as old as you feel. I always felt young at heart.

Who do you give credit for your success?

My parents and God. I believe in destiny and the philosophy of karma. Many people have contributed, but I struggled alone. For the latest success, the credit really goes to my children.

What's your mantra for success?

Take risks. Never say die. It has worked for me. My priorities were children, then music. Whatever came my way to help me, I took it. The rest I dumped ruthlessly.

Was there no disappointment?

Initially, when I got into the world of music, I was treated like an underdog. But I couldn't have backed out.

What about the men in your life?

The children have grown up, and I feel uncomfortable if someone points out the hard times I've had. Ganpatrao and Pancham (R.D. Burman) are no more. I had a unique relationship with Pancham. He was a great music director who exploited my vocal cords like nobody could. We both loved music, food and the good things in life. And yet maintained our privacy, by choice.

Wasn't the relationship strained later?

Not exactly. Wrong people around him misguided him. Any successful artiste loves chamchas (cronies). They tried to separate us. When I couldn't tolerate it any more, I explained the situation to him. He realised it.

How different are you from Lata?

She is older by four years, she is like my mother. We have kept our professions separate from family life.

But isn't she a rival?

What are we talking about? Seniority or numbers? What she can do, I might not be able to. What I did, she can't. It is like two people who went to the moon: the person who took the first step got all the acclaim. It was a healthy competition. I always wanted to do better, that zid has made me what I am today.

How do you feel when people compare the two?

Good and bad. No one can match her. It is an honour that people compare my voice with hers. But bad, because we are two separate identities with different kinds of voices.

Sheela Raval (1997)

ASHA BHOSLE: TOP 51 HITS



Asha Bhosle was asked "You must have sung around 25,000 songs till date". She replied, "no singer in the entire world can humanely sing 25,000 songs. In fact I would like to state humbly that I am the only singer who has sung the maximum number of songs 12,000. If you sing one song a day, you can humanly sing 365 songs a year and 3650 songs in ten years. In around 60 years of my career I could sing 12,000 songs because there were times I had sung even four songs a day."

ASHA ON "ASHA AUR KHAYYAM"

On Asha Aur Khayyam: After Umrao Jaan I had wanted to cut an album with Khayyam sahab. We discussed the idea with a few music companies, but they turned out to be so kanjoos. They didn't want to spend on the album. PolyGram was an exception. It willingly agreed to the album and gave us a free hand to work on it.

I knew from experience what a taskmaster Khayyam sahab is and his insistence on rehearsals. I assured him that I would rehearse with him for a month or two before recording for the album. While rehearsing for the ghazals, I felt that the lyrics were reflecting my story. It was as if the lyricists knew the ups and downs in my life. I had tears in my eyes while singing some of the ghazals.

On the declining number of ghazal patrons: It's really sad that today not many people understand ghazals and appreciate their beauty. Urdu is such a polite, polished language. You hear people saying, "Ek ˜gajal' gao." That's because we are not promoting Urdu, which is one of the most beautiful languages of India. It's so rich, yet we are disowning it and distancing ourselves from it.

I remember when I had just begun my singing career. I never could get the Urdu pronounciation and words right. Hum ghati Marathi ke bachche, humein kya maloom Urdu kya hai (We were ghati Marathi-speaking locals, what would we know about Urdu). But the writers and the lyricists helped me understand the finer nuances of the language and evoked my interest in the language. I even kept a tutor, a maulana, and learnt Alif, be, te, se. Today I am proud that I can get my Urdu words right. Urdu is very much our language, our culture, and it is a pity that it is not spoken widely. It would be great if it is taught widely and people appreciate its charm and becomes well-versed in it.
