Lata Mangeshkar was born on 28 September 1929 . 67 in a Maharashtrian Brahmin family in Indore, (in the present-day Indore district of Madhya Pradesh and then the capital of the princely state of Indore which was part of the Central India Agency in British India). Her father, Deenanath Mangeshkar, was a Marathi and Konkani classical singer and theatre actor. Her mother, Shevanti (later renamed Shudhamati), was a Gujarati woman from Thalner, Bombay Presidency (now in northwest Maharashtra). Deenanath’s mother belonged to the Devadasis, a matrilineal community of temple artists.Deenanath had taken the surname Mangeshkar, based on the name of his ancestral village, Mangeshi. Shevanti was Deenanath’s second wife; his first wife Narmada, who had died before his marriage to Shevanti, was Shevanti’s older sister.
Her maternal grandfather, Seth Haridas Ramdas Lad, was from Gujarat, a prosperous businessman and landlord of Thalner. She learned Gujarati folk songs such as garbas of Pavagadh from her maternal grandmother.
Lata was named “Hema” at her birth. Her parents later renamed her Lata after a female character, Latika, in one of her father’s plays.
She was the eldest child in the family. Meena, Asha, Usha and Hridaynath, in birth order, are her siblings; all are accomplished singers and musicians.

She received her first music lesson from her father. At the age of five, she started to work as an actress in her father’s musical plays (Sangeet Natak in Marathi). On her first day of school, Mangeshkar left because she was not allowed to bring her sister Asha along with her
She sang the song “Naachu Yaa Gade, Khelu Saari Mani Haus Bhaari”, which was composed by Sadashivrao Nevrekar for Vasant Joglekar’s Marathi movie Kiti Hasaal (1942), but the song was dropped from the final cut. Vinayak gave her a small role in Navyug Chitrapat’s Marathi movie Pahili Mangalaa-gaur (1942), in which she sang “Natali Chaitraachi Navalaai” which was composed by Dada Chandekar. Her first Hindi song was “Mata Ek Sapoot Ki Duniya Badal De Tu” for the Marathi film Gajaabhaau (1943). The Bollywood industry was yet to find its feet, so Mangeshkar had to first concentrate on acting, which she didn’t like, as the lights and people ordering her around made her feel uncomfortable.
She moved to Mumbai in 1945 when Master Vinayak’s company moved its headquarters there. She started taking lessons in Hindustani classical music from Ustad Aman Ali Khan of Bhindibazaar Gharana.She sang “Paa Lagoon Kar Jori” for Vasant Joglekar’s Hindi-language movie Aap Ki Seva Mein (1946),which was composed by Datta Davjekar. The dance in the film was performed by Rohini Bhate, who later became a famous classical dancer. Lata and her sister Asha played minor roles in Vinayak’s first Hindi-language movie, Badi Maa (1945). In that movie, Lata also sang a bhajan, “Maata Tere Charnon Mein.” She was introduced to music director Vasant Desai during the recording of Vinayak’s second Hindi-language movie, Subhadra (1946).
Ab kaun sahara hai lyrics | Lata Mangeshkar | Ziddi | 1948

Ab kaun sahara hai lyrics :
ab kaun sahara hai
jab tera sahara chhut gayaaa..
jab tera sahara chhut gaya
jab tera sahara chhut gaya….
jab tera sahara chhut gaya
tum hii kya tum hii kya ruth gaye
hamase to zamana ruth gaya
hamase to zamana ruth gaya
taqadiir ka rona kya
taqadiir ka rona kya
duniya se shikayat kya
dil me dil me basanevala
jab dil kii hii duniya lut gaya..
jab dil kii hii duniya lut gaya
do dil milakar bhii dur rahe….
majabur the ham majabur rahe
majabur the ham majabur rahe
in hathon in hathon me akar bhii
haye unaka daman chhut gaya
haye unaka daman chhut gaya…
ham gam ke ansu pii lenge….
ham do din yun hii jii lenge
tum shad tum shad raho abad
apana to nasiiba phut gaya
apana to nasiiba phut gaya
ab kaun
ab kaun sahara hai
jab tera sahara chhut gayaaa..
jab tera sahara chhut gaya
ab kaun………
