Asha
Bhosle
beats
nepotism
and
embraces
young
talents
from
across
the
globe
offering
them
her
social
media
platform
to
showcase
the
best
of
talent...
Her
smile
makes
the
world
go
wow!
The
youthful
effervescence
of
her
voice
is
mind-blowing
and
her
enthusiasm
is
contagious.
She
is
87
years
young
and
has
a
career
spanning
over
seven
decades
with
over
1000
Hindi
films,
several
private
albums,
and
is
a
Guinness
Book
world
record
holder
as
the
most
recorded
artiste
in
music
history.
Padma
Vibhushan
Asha
Bhosle
also
has
an
amazing
repertoire
of
versatility
ranging
from
Hindi
film
music,
pop,
ghazals,
bhajans,
traditional
Indian
classical
music,
folk
songs,
qawwalis
and
Rabindra
Sangeet
in
over
20
Indian
and
foreign
languages.
Yet,
Asha
Bhosle
is
an
icon
who
keeps
reinventing
herself.
After
launching
her
YouTube
channel
recently,
Asha
Bhosle
is
now
coming
out
with
her
show
titled
'Asha
Ki
Asha'.
The
show
seems
to
be
the
singer's
musical
tribute
to
the
world
that
gave
her
the
adoration
and
adulation
that
she
very
much
deserves.
And
in
this
age
and
era
of
nepotism
and
musical
shows
that
thrive
on
drama
more
than
talent,
'Asha
Ki
Asha'
promises
to
be
a
show
to
unearth
real
talent.
"My
only
interest
is
in
the
singers'
musical
talent.
It
is
not
a
show
that
will
highlight
his/her
life."
Asha
Bhosle
has
always
loved
to
see
talented
youngsters
get
their
due.
"I've
always
referred
young
talents
to
composers,
but
it
is
not
always
that
they
achieved
their
dreams."
But
lockdown
brought
with
it
the
big
idea.
"One
day,
when
I
saw
my
granddaughter
singing
online
with
friends
and
having
a
blast,
it
struck
me
that
I
could
unearth
real
talent
through
my
YouTube
and
social
media.
Hence,
I
invite
aspiring
singers
to
send
me
two-minute
musical
videos
so
that
I
can
review
and
give
a
platform
to
the
best."
Asha
Bhosle
is
very
clear
that
musical
talent
is
all
that
she
seeks.
"I
am
looking
for
unique
voices.
The
right
pitch
and
rhythm
sense
are
a
must.
Looks,
dancing
talent,
age,
gender,
nationality
-
nothing
matters.
But
those
under
18
need
parental
consent." Also,
what's
more
is
that
the
chosen
one
will
be
blessed
by
Asha
Bhosle
with
1
lac
rupees.
Asha
Bhosle
is
humility
personified.
She
suggests
that
the
song
be
recorded
in
a
place
with
minimum
external
sound
interference
before
he/she
uploads
it
on
www.ashabhosle.com.
The
song
has
to
be
either
in
English
or
Hindi,
and
the
best
talent
will
receive
a
certificate
signed
by
the
ageless
diva
herself.
Considering
that
Asha
Bhosle
faced
the
mic
as
a
10-year-old,
she
is
looking
forward
to
guiding
many
talented
youngsters
to
walk
the
same
path
that
she
did
and
let
the
world
hear
their
voice.
"The
set
was
very
hot
and
I
was
singing
for
the
first
time,
and
to
add
to
that,
I
was
acting
as
well.
The
temperature
and
the
bright
reflectors
were
so
disturbing
and
exhausting
that
I
fainted." Asha
Bhosle
got
up
and
finished
the
song.
Today,
she
has
one
advise
for
youngsters
before
they
pick
up
the
mic
to
sing
for
Asha
Ki
Asha.
"This
is
not
a
look
test.
Focus
on
the
song,
the
pitch,
the
rhythm
and
the
voice.
Sing
from
your
heart.
Trust
me,
the
future
is
yours!"
