Legendary singer Asha Bhosle will soon be seen in the upcoming episode of Dance India Dance Little Masters. Zee TV has shared a couple of promos from the episode where Asha is seen talking about late Lata Mangeshkar.
Asha talked about receiving a special present from Lata Didi six months before her death. Asha shared, “Aaj se 5-6 mahine pehle didi ne merko bola, maang le, aaj tu Lata Mangeshkar se maang le kuch bhi. (A few months ago didi offered me to ask for anything.) I asked for her old saree signed by her.” The singer then showed the saree she received from Lata Mangeshkar and added, “Ye saree duniya ki daulat se merko badi hai (This saree is a bigger wealth than any wealth in this world for me)”

In one of the promos, Asha narrated an incident from her childhood when her elder sister Lata would be chased as she threw stones on the Gulmohar tree near her house. Their mother used to call her ‘jafrabaadi bhains’ as she used to have long pigtails. Asha also shared how sometimes the sisters used to pull Lata’s pigtails if they had to stop her. ZEE TV captioned the promo as, "Sunakar #LataMangeshkar ji ke bachpan ki baatein, L’il Masters ke manch par @asha.bhosle ji taaza karengi unki yaadein. Dekhiye #DIDLilMasters, Saturday, 23rd April, raat 9 baje, sirf #ZeeTV par aur kahin bhi, kabhi bhi #ZEE5 App par. #DanceKeBaap #EkHistoricShaam #Trivia"
Lata Mangeshkar left behind a musical legacy that can never be matched. Lata Didi, as fans often called her, passed away at the age of 92 at Mumbai's Breach Candy hospital on February 6, 2022.
