Legendary singer Asha Bhosle is celebrating her 87th birthday with family in Lonavla.
Legendary singer Asha Bhosle is celebrating her birthday on September 8 and has turned 87 this year. Asha Tai as she is fondly called rang in the celebrations with her near and dear ones. During an interaction, the 'Yeh Mera Dil' singer revealed that as she is becoming 'younger' her only mantra is 'to look forward'. Asha Bhosle also revealed that she is going to get the chefs at her restaurant to try out her new veg and non-veg recipes, created by her during the lockdown.
Bhosle stated, "I am very fast at what I do. Whether it is singing or cooking. So when I create recipes, others run out of the kitchen, not able to match my speed!" As her birthday cake, Asha Bhosle had her favourite Fresh Cream Fruit Cake, made of fruits and dry fruits. The cake was specially brought for her from Mumbai to Lonavla where she is currently residing with her Anand, daughter-in-law Anuja, grandchildren Zanai and Ranjai.
Zanai who brought the cake also got her grandmother's favourite Japanese and Chinese food from Mumbai making her happier. Talking about her grandchildren, Asha Bhosle said, "Both the kids are very talented. Zanai sings, and in her, I see myself as a child."
Meanwhile, the legend also spoke about the youngsters who have taken up singing and participated in her talent show, Asha Ki Asha. She said, "After listening to over 3000 voices for my talent show #AshaKiAsha, I have a very difficult task in hand to choose the best. Young talents from across the globe have sent their recordings. Some of them are very poor and live in harsh conditions, but are truly God-gifted with divine voices. It will not be an easy task to select one. But this is my chance to share my 70 years of experience with youngsters and give back to music what I got. And I am grateful to God every single day for that."
Asha also shared about her desire to generate employment for women in Lonavla. She said, "I want to help these women stand on their own feet. It has not been easy for the common man during Corona. And it has not been easy for the poor women from here, whom I have seen during the epidemic. I want to do something concrete for them."
Talking about her life and journey, Asha Bhosle concluded, "Looking back, Asha Tai has no regrets. I am happy I have lived and loved. I have lived an honest life. I am happy that I stood on my own feet as a 10-year-old singing my first song. Today at 87, I am still singing and standing on my own feet. And I have a beautiful family and an even larger fan-family. What more could I ask for!"
