In an interview with PTI, the veteran lyricist said, "Lata ji is a 'karishma' (miracle) in herself and this 'karishma' doesn’t happen always and 'aaj ye karishma mukammal (complete) ho gaya', she is gone. She was a miraculous singer, with a miraculous voice. It is difficult to find adjectives for her. How much ever we talk about her, it is less. You can’t bind her in words. She is beyond words." The duo went on to create gems one after the other in songs from films like "Khamoshi", "Kinara", "Lekin", "Rudaali", "Masoom", "Libaas", "Dil Se..", "Satya", "Hu Tu Tu", and "Maachis", among others.

After intermittent scares about her fluctuating health, it was as if our breath had been snatched away too – as soon as it was disclosed that she had passed away at the age of 92 at the Breach Candy Hospital in Mumbai, where she had been rushed to be kept under observation for pneumonia and COVID-19. Mortality is as inevitable as a setting sun. Lata Mangeshkar, variously described as the Nightingale of India, Didi, and the Queen of Melody, was that constant, a faithful companion in the stretching hours of solitude and anxiety – be it in joyous times or the ongoing pandemic, cutting across at least three generations. To call her a legend or icon, would be just another hackneyed epithet. She was greater than that: a householder to an extended family, a warrior against the recording studios who grudged playback singers their due share in copyright, a lone combatant whenever she had been done wrong by the highest echelons of the music industry, and a single woman who scripted the rules, be it at her forever-modest home in Prabhu Kunj Apartments on Peddar Road or at the male-dominated recording studios. Born In Indore, she was the eldest of the five children of Pandit Deenanath Mangeshkar, a Marathi and Konkani classical musician-plus-theatre actor and his second wife Shevanti.
