Lata Mangeshkar was an Indian playback singer and occasional music composer. She is widely considered to have been one of the greatest and most influential singers in India. Her contribution to the Indian music industry in a career spanning eight decades gained her honorific titles such as the “Queen of Melody”, “Nightingale of India”, and “Voice of the Millennium”.

Lata recorded songs in over thirty-six Indian languages and a few foreign languages, though primarily in Marathi, Hindi, and Bengali. Her foreign languages included English, Russian, Dutch, Nepali, and Swahili. She received several accolades and honors throughout her career. In 1989, the Dadasaheb Phalke Award was bestowed on her by the Government of India. In 2001, in recognition of her contributions to the nation, she was awarded the Bharat Ratna, India’s highest civilian honour; she is only the second female singer,

after M. S. Subbulakshmi, to receive this honour.France conferred on her its highest civilian award, Officer of the National Order of the Legion of Honour, in 2007.

She was the recipient of three National Film Awards, 15 Bengal Film Journalists’ Association Awards, four Filmfare Best Female Playback Awards, two Filmfare Special Awards, the Filmfare Lifetime Achievement Award and many more. In 1974, she was one of the first Indian playback singers to perform at the Royal Albert Hall in London, UK. Her last recorded song was “Saugandh Mujhe Is Mitti ki” released on 30 March 2019 as a tribute to the Indian Army and the Nation.

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.

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

Jab dil men tere lyrics :

Jab dil mein tere dard
Aur rang tera zard ho
Jab dil mein tere dard
Aur rang tera zard ho
Raato ko tu na so sake
Jo chahe wo na ho sake
Raato ko tu na so sake
Jo chahe wo na ho sake
Phir man lo dil kho gaya
Phir jan lo kuch ho gaya
Kuch ho gaya dil kho gaya
Phir man lo dil kho gaya
Phir jan lo kuch ho gaya
Kuch ho gaya dil kho gaya

Jab jhum kar aaye ghata
Aur dil se tere nikle aah
Jab jhum kar aaye ghata
Aur dil se tere nikle aah
Sawan ki kali raat ho
Aur aankho mein barsat ho
Sawan ki kali raat ho
Aur aankho mein barsat ho
Phir man lo dil kho gaya
Phir jan lo kuch ho gaya
Kuch ho gaya dil kho gaya
Phir man lo dil kho gaya
Phir jan lo kuch ho gaya
Kuch ho gaya dil kho gaya

Jab dhundti ho kuch nazar
Koi pesh na jaye magar
Jab dhundti ho kuch nazar
Koi pesh na jaye magar
To siskiya bharta rahe
Jisse mile shikwe kare
To siskiya bharta rahe
Jisse mile shikwe kare
Phir man lo dil kho gaya
Phir jan lo kuch ho gaya
Kuch ho gaya dil kho gaya
Phir man lo dil kho gaya
Phir jan lo kuch ho gaya
Kuch ho gaya dil kho gaya.
