ASHA BHOSLE
Asha Bhosle is born on September 8, 1933. She is one of the best-known and highly regarded Hindi playback singers in India Asha Bhosle was born in the small hamlet of Goar in Sangli, Bombay Presidency, into the musical family of Master Deenanath Mangeshkar, who belongs to Gomantak Maratha Samaj.
She and her elder sister Lata Mangeshkar began singing and acting in films to support their family. She made her Hindi film debut when she sang the song Saawan Aaya for Hansraj Behl's Chunariya (1948). Her first solo Hindi film song was for the movie Raat Ki Raani (1949). Between 1948 and 1957, she sang more songs than any other playback singer, but the majority of these were in small, indistinct films--and whatever big film she got a chance to sing in, it was usually for the heroine's best friend or in a duet with bigger singers like Shamshad Begum, Geeta Dutt, or her own sister. And unfortunately having made an ill-advised marriage that alienated her from her family, she had no choice but to take up all available assignments to provide for her children. By the end of the 1960s, she was second only to her sister, and the two of them were the queens of Indian playback singing right through to the 1990s. However, in spite of her incredible vocal range, she was getting typecast in singing sensual songs.
