Career
In the early 1950s, Asha Bhosle started her singing career in Hindi films, initially getting opportunities in low-budget movies and singing for supporting roles. While prominent playback singers like Geeta Dutt, Shamshad Begum, and Lata Mangeshkar dominated the industry, Asha Bhosle took on assignments they refused, often singing for the “bad girls” or vamps in the films.
She began gaining recognition with songs like “Maang Ke Saath Tumhara” and “Saathi Haath Badhana” in films like “Naya Daur” (1957) and “Parineeta” (1953). O.P. Nayyar gave her a significant break in “C.I.D.” (1956), and she found success with songs like “Uden Jab Jab Zulfein Teri” from “Naya Daur.” Her collaboration with music directors like R.D. Burman and B.R. Chopra further solidified her position in the industry.
In the 1960s, Asha Bhosle’s performances in songs like “Aaja Aaja” from “Teesri Manzil” (1966) garnered widespread acclaim, showcasing her versatility. Her partnership with R.D. Burman resulted in several hits, including songs for actress Helen, with whom she shared a close professional relationship.
During the 1980s, Bhosle experimented with different genres, such as singing ghazals for the film “Umrao Jaan” (1981), which earned her critical acclaim and her first National Film Award. She continued to diversify her repertoire, winning another National Award for the song “Mera Kuchh Saamaan” from “Ijaazat” (1987).
In the 1990s and 2000s, Bhosle’s collaboration with composers like A.R. Rahman produced chart-topping hits, including songs from films like “Rangeela” (1995), “Lagaan” (2001), and “Filhaal” (2002).
Outside of her singing career, Asha Bhosle ventured into acting, making her debut in the film “Mai” (2013) at the age of 79, receiving positive reviews for her performance. In May 2020, Bhosle launched her YouTube channel, “Asha Bhosle Official,” expanding her presence in the digital realm.
