Asha Bhosle graced the stage of Republic Media House for a Legends segment in August last year. Speaking at the event, the legendary artist, who hails from a musically gifted family, shared, “When I recorded my first song, I was 10 years old. I had to sing this song standing in front of the mic, and I was trembling at that time, because I did not know anything then. My father had recorded his songs. Then when I sang the first song, I felt that I can sing. Didi does not only sing, but I can also sing.” For the unversed, Asha Bhosle is the younger sister of singer Lata Mangeshkar.
