Nasreen Munni Kabir’s Lata
Mangeshkar in her own voice is a
book with a difference. The book
is in the form of a conversation
with the singer. In fact, Lata had
spoken on a range of topics. The
book Lata Mangeshkar in her own
voice was released yesterday (May
15th, 2009). This book, which has
been penned in English by the author,
has all the events that happened
in the veteran singer’s life
from her childhood till the very
recent times. At the function, Lata
Mangeshkar said: “We (Kabir
and I) know each other for many
years. I personally don’t
like writing books. Jaya (Bachchan)
asked me once but I ignored it.”
Actors Jaya Bachchan and Waheeda
Rehman, lyricist Javed Akhtar and
singer Alka Yagnik were present
at the book launch on Friday. |
