It was a blessing for a composer, filmmaker, or any actor if they get to feature Lata ji's voice in their film. While speaking about the same, one of India's most prolific playback singers, Alka Yagnik said "Madhubalaji was the first actress who started making contracts which stated that only Lata Mangeshkar will sing her songs in films. Everyone wanted only Lataji to sing their songs, that's why there was always a date crunch for her, and people used to go to another extent to convince her to sing songs in their films."
She further added, "Also, when Waheeda Rehman got to know that Lataji loves chocolates she started sending chocolates to her so that Lataji agrees to do stage shows with her. Every new actress wanted that someday Lataji should sing for them, and once Lataji sang for them, they used to feel that they too are loved by Lataji."
