Lata Mangeshkar left us a day before yesterday. As the saying goes, “people die, their legacy remains”, we just can’t get enough of the tremendous work the legendary singer has done in the music industry. After her demise, some lesser-known stories about the Bharat Ratna recipient are coming to light, and today, we’ll be taking a look at one of those.
Many of Lata didi’s fans would be aware that she was very choosy about her songs, especially post 1990. Yesterday, we shared how she once took a dig at songs like Halkat Jawani for their obscene lyrics. Much before that, the singer had rejected the song after reaching the studio. What really went wrong? Below is all you need to know.
It was for the 1991 release, First Love Letter, producer Pahlaj Nihalani had offered Lata Mangeshkar to croon one song. However, she turned it down after reaching the studio as she found the lyrics obscene. The song was titled ‘Kambal Na Hatao…”. As Lata didi found the words inappropriate, she asked Nihalani to offer the song to her sister Asha Bhosle, who eventually ended up singing it.
