Veteran Singer Asha Bhosle, who has duetted with the likes of Boy George, Robbie Williams and Australian cricketer Brett Lee, is set to perform with iconic South American rock guitarist Carlos Santana.

The singer, who will turn 77 tomorrow, has been a long-time fan of the Grammy-award-winning guitarist.

Her late husband and famous musician R D Burman introduced Asha to Santana's music.

"We are in talks with Santana. I have always wanted to sing with an artiste like him. It will be something new and different. I have experimented with my music a lot and this is going to be a new challenge," Asha said.

In her six decade-long career, Asha has mastered almost all genres in music, be it pop, ghazal, classical, quawwali or Rabindra Sangeet.

While Santana is a celebrated name in western music with a haul of 10 Grammy awards.

Placed 15 in Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time, Santana's famous songs are Oye Comwa, Maria Maria and Black Magic Woman.
