Lata Mangeshkar was born on 28 September 1929: 67 in a Maharashtrian Brahmin familyin 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
n 2001, Mangeshkar was awarded the Bharat Ratna, India’s highest civilian honour.
At one point, she appeared in the Guinness World Records, which listed her as the most recorded artist in history between 1948 and 1987
Initially, she is said to have imitated the acclaimed singer Noor Jehan, but she later developed her own style of singing.She brought a new signature style of singing to Indian film music, moving away from mehfil-style performances to suit both ‘modern’ and ‘traditional’ female protagonists. A soprano range voice with less volume or amplitude, she had enough weight in her voice to give definite shape to the melody of Indian film songs. Although she had limited coloratura skills in her early career, she developed better tone and pitch as she progressed in her playback career.

In 2005, she designed a jewellery collection called Swaranjali, which was crafted by Adora, an Indian diamond export company. Five pieces from the collection raised £105,000 at a Christie’s auction, and a part of the money was donated for the 2005 Kashmir earthquake relief.Also in 2001, she recorded her first Hindi song with the composer Ilaiyaraaja, for the film Lajja; she had earlier recorded Tamil and Telugu songs composed by Ilaiyaraaja.
Her song “Wada Na Tod” was included in the film Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) and in its soundtrack.
After 14 years, she recorded a song for composer Nadeem-Shravan; “Kaise Piya Se” for Bewafaa (2005).
Lyrics of songs in Hindi movies were, in those days, primarily composed by Urdu poets and contained a higher proportion of Urdu words, including the dialogue. Actor Dilip Kumar once made a mildly disapproving remark about her accent while singing Hindi/Urdu songs; so for a period of time, she took lessons in Urdu from an Urdu teacher named Shafi. In subsequent interviews she said that Noor Jehan heard her as a child and had told her to practice a lot. The two stayed in touch with each other for many years to come.
One of her first major hits was “Aayega Aanewaala,” a song in the movie Mahal (1949), composed by music director Khemchand Prakash and lip-synced on screen by actress Madhubala.This was a defining moment for her, and a catalyst for the recognition of playback singers in India. Before this, playback singers were seen as the vocal equivalent of a stuntman and remained invisible and uncredited. This song was such a big hit, that Radio Goa revealed her identity and she became a star in her own right. This opened the door for other playback singers to achieve the recognition they deserved

Dil mera toda lyrics :
Dil mera toda
O mujhe kahi ka
Na chhoda tere pyar ne
Haye tere pyar ne
Haye tere pyar ne
Dil mera toda o mujhe
Kahi ka na chhoda
Tere pyar ne haye tere pyar ne
Jali jali jau re kaha chali jau re
Haye mujhe mar
Dala virah ki mar ne
Haye tere pyar ne
Haye tere pyar ne pyar ne
Dil mera toda
O mujhe kahi ka na
Chhoda tere pyar ne
Haye tere pyar ne
Haye tere pyar ne pyar ne
More sajna more
Sajna o more balma
More sajna ho
More balma
Din bite jaise
Taise ratiya bitau kaise
Kiya kya kasoor hai
Kiya kya kasoor
Lage badle utarne
Haye tere pyar ke
Haye tere pyar ne pyar ne
Dil mera toda
O mujhe kahi ka
Na chhoda tere pyar ne
Haye tere pyar ne
Haye tere pyar ne pyar ne
Mora manwa dole
Ghadi ghadi ghadi ghadi
Haye is uljhan mein ye jan padi
Haye is uljhan mein ye jan padi
Sajan kiya rogi haye
Sajan kiya rogi tere
Jhoothe ikrar ne
Haye tere pyar ne
Haye tere pyar ne pyar ne
Dil mera toda
O mujhe kahi ka na
Chhoda tere pyar ne
Haye tere pyar ne pyar ne.
