The nightingale’s back

Lata MangeshkarGood news for every Indian music lover.

Bharat Ratna Lata Mangeshkar is returning to the recording studios after a huge gap of five years.

It’s a solo number for Om Shri Arihant's 'Lifestyle In Generation Next'.

Yes, the name of the movie sounds a bit weird but the news is that the film is written, produced and directed by Santosh Kumar Jain who makes his debut after years of financing big filmmakers like Manmohan Desai, Dada Kondke and S. Raamnathan .

The movie will reportedly be made on an ambitious scale and talks are going on with a few leading stars both from India and the west.

The songstress who turned 81, last September was supposed to start with the recording some two months ago but had to postpone the recording because of a series operations to replace both her knees.

She has now completely recovered and will report for the recording for the same film at Swarlata Recording Studio on April 27. She’s happy that the song will be recorded by one of her favorite music director Raam Laxman who’s still famous for his hit tunes, especially ‘Hum Aapke Hain Kaun’ almost fifteen years back.

Modest Lataji has said: 'I feel like a new singer facing for first test. It is a great feeling to sing for a film again but I am also a little nervous before the recording of any song and this time I am a little more nervous because of being out of touch. I have worked very hard on the song. And I hope I do justice to it.'

This is one veteran singer who still has some years left in her and can happily give all her junior singers many important lessons in life.-Sampurn Media
