Her final rites are scheduled to be conducted with full state honours at 4 pm today at Shivaji Park in Mumbai. Widely regarded as one of the most versatile singers in Indian music, Asha Bhosle's repertoire spanned classical compositions, ghazals, cabaret songs and contemporary pop. She held a Guinness World Record for the most studio recordings and, along with her sister Lata Mangeshkar, helped define the golden era of Hindi film music.

Born to classical singer and theatre actor Pandit Deenanath Mangeshkar, she began her musical journey at a young age and went on to build an unparalleled legacy. Her collaborations with composer RD Burman, whom she later married, remain among the most celebrated in Indian cinema. Asha Bhosle Funeral: Ranveer Singh and Tabu Console Singer’s Daughter Zanai Bhosle As She Cries Inconsolably (Watch Videos).
