It would be a little later that her own style would evolve and blossom. The song, however, written by Rajendra Krishan and composed by C Ramchandra, catapulted her into a success. Yeh zindagi usi ki hai (Anarkali, 1953): In this top-grossing film from the year, in which Mangeshkar sang eight songs, Yeh zindagi usi ki hai in the sombre raga Bhimpalasi became the defining sound of heartbreak. Aaja re pardesi (Madhumati, 1958): In this Bimal Roy masterpiece, Salil Chowdhury gave us this achingly beautiful piece that echoes in a valley throughout the film.

No recorded songs, all done live each time in every city. My stage adaptation of Mughal-E-Azam is a tribute to K Asif, Lataji and Naushad saab. Every performance begins with a recorded message from Lataji. I had a very special rapport with her.

Sadly she is not here to see what we’ve done. But I hope she is smiling from above, as are K Asif,
