Lata Mangeshkar (September 28, 1929)

By Kuldip Dhiman

 

WHEN she was barely five or six, Lata Mangeshkar heard a student of her father's render raga puria dhanashreewrongly. In all her innocence she not only pointed out the wrong notes, but also gave a perfect demonstration. Just then her father walked in, and was amazed at his daughter's amazing mastery over the complex raga. Later he said to his wife: 'Imagine, we have a gifted musician in our house, and we didn't even know.' Just then he decided to groom his talented daughter, but even he would hardly have foreseen the dizzy heights of success his little daughter would scale. After her father, Lata's first formal guru was Ustad Aman Ali Khan Bhendibazaarwale, and later Amanat Khan Dewaswale.
But her happy childhood ended with the death of her father. Now Lata, being the eldest of six children, was forced work in order to feed the family. She sang her first song for Vasant Joglekar's Marathi film Kiti Hasaal, but un-fortunately for her, the song was not included in the film. Later she was employed as child artiste, and her maiden film was Pahili Mangalagaur. After doing only five films Lata refused to act, as she did not like the idea of putting on heavy makeup.

In 1947, Lata recorded her first Hindi song 'Pa lagoon kar jori . . . .' for the film Aap Ki Seva Mein. She has dominated the Indian music scene since. With more than 25,000 songs in almost all Indian languages, she is the most popular voice in the sub-continent, and most of us can hardly imagine life without her songs. There is hardly a music director who has not used her voice. And not many know that between 1962 and 1969, Lata also composed music for three Marathi films.

She was honoured with the Padma Bhushan in 1969; was presented the key of the City of Georgetown, Guyana in 1980; honorary citizenship of the Republic of Suriname in 1980; honorary citizenship of the USA in 1987; Dada Saheb Phalke Award for life long contribution to cinema in 1989. She won the Filmfare awards for the best female playback singer for Madhumati, Bees Saal Baad, Khandaan,and Jeene Ki Raah. In order to encourage new talent, she stopped accepting such awards after 1969. But in spite of all the awards and honour her most cherished moment is when Pandit Nehru cried after she rendered the patriotic song Ai mere watan ke logo, and much later at Tirupati, where she sang for an hour and a half after being conferred with the title Asthan Sangeet Vidvaan Sarloo (Court Musician of the Shrine)

hlo dear
She sang her first song, Naachu Yaa Gade, Khelu Saari Mani Haus Bhaari, for Vasant Joglekar's Marathi movie Kiti Hasaal (1942). Sadly, the song was dropped from the final cut of the movie. However, she was offered a small role in Navyug Chitrapat’s Marathi movie Pahili Mangalaagaur (1942), in which she sang the song Natali Chaitraachi Navalaai.
 
3. The gurus
 
She took Indian classical music lessons from Ustad Amanat Ali Khan but later started training under Amanat Khan Devaswale after her former teacher migrated to the newly formed Pakistan after partition. She also trained under Pandit Tulsidas Sharma, who was a pupil of Ustad Bade Ghulam Ali Khan.
 
4. Major breakthrough
 
She got her first major break with the song Dil Mera Toda in the movie Majboor (1948) but her first major hit was Aayega Aanewaala, sung for Madhubala in the movie Mahal (1949).
 
5. Acclaim as a singer
 
During the 1950s, Lata carved a niche for herself as an acclaimed singer in the Hindi film industry and her career took off. During this phase, she collaborated with successful composers like S D Burman, Naushad Ali, Salil Chowdhury and Madan Mohan, and sang for movies like Baiju Bawra (1952), Shree 420 (1955) and Devdas (1955).
 
6. First Filmfare award
 
She won a Filmfare award as the best female playback singer for the song Aaja Re Pardesi for the movie Madhumati (1958).
 
7. Conflict with S D Burman
 
In the 1950s, Lata had a rift with S D Burman and the two didn’t come together for any project until the year 1962.
 
8. Broke Nehru into tears
 
On the Republic Day of 1963, two months after the Indo-China war had ended, Lata brought tears to the eyes of the then prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru as she sang Aye Mere Watan ke Logon, as a tribute to the deceased soldiers.
