Lata
Mangeshkar,
the
Queen
of
Melody
has
come
out
of
her
cocoon
to
engage
us
in
conversation
in
the
language
she
knows
best
-
the
Language
of
Music.
Lataji
has
released
an
album
after
nearly
17
years
on
the
most
suitable
day
-
World
Music
Day.
This
album
'
Saadgi
',
which
is
a
T-Series
presentation,
is
a
reflection
of
the
great
persona
that
is
Lata
Mangeshkar.
It
guilelessly
serenades
from
one
song
to
another,
reflecting
the
tranquil
depths
of
the
singer.
Most
of
these
ghazal-like
compositions
have
mostly
been
penned
by
Javed
Akhtar
while
the
music
has
been
composed
by
Mayuresh
Pai.
The
Music
Launch
of
'Saadgi
'
that
was
held
at
'The
Club
'
was
a
short
and
sweet
affair
where
the
Chief
Guest
was
Jagjit
Singh,
with
whom
Lataji
had
last
released
an
album
17
years
back.
With
the
event
held
late
in
the
afternoon,
followed
by
hi-tea,
it
was
a
relaxed
atmosphere
where
Lataji
expressed
her
feelings
on
the
album
and
her
plans
for
the
future.
The
album
stars
Mona
Singh
(of
Jassi
fame)
and
is
being
directed
by
Anupam
Sinha.
The
name
'Saadgi'
derives
its
origin
from
Lata
Didi's
conviction
that
it's
the
simple
things
in
life
that
touch
our
heart.
The
songs
talk
about
such
circumstances
that
have
touched
everyone's
life
at
some
point
or
the
other.
Lataji
believes
it's
destiny
that
played
a
role
in
this
album.
In
her
own
words
Lataji
says,
"There
is
no
reason
why
the
album
happened,
but
it
just
happened.
Nothing
was
pre-planned.
Everything
just
fell
into
place.
The
lyrics
appealed
to
me
and
I
could
identify
with
it.
Music
is
my
life.
As
long
as
I
am,
so
will
my
music."
Even
though
Music
is
her
life
but
this
Nightingale
of
India
also
has
some
hidden
talents.
Lataji
has
always
been
fond
of
jewellery
designing
and
has
crafted
beautiful
intricate
diamond
jewellery
designs.
So
much
so
that
it
gave
birth
to
the
brand
'
Swaranjali',
who
also
happen
to
be
the
producers
of
this
album.
To
the
world
at
large
Lataji
symbolizes
the
epitome
of
womanhood
and
this
aspect
of
her
personality
is
embodied
in
Swaranjali's
design
collection.
