Lata Mangeshkar 🙏


Melodious ... unbelievable voice ... 

The voice that embodied every emotion ever portrayed on screen.....

The one voice that you felt is part of your life....part of memories you made on the way.. the first kiss, the first fight, the first drive in the new car while one of her songs was playing on the radio... the magical time in cinemas ... the first loss and now the ultimate loss....

A nation says goodbye to it's nightingale....and keeps the melodies alive in the hearts of millions.

While her songs are being played all over the neighbourhood we bid farewell on Social Media... 

Om Shanti Lata Ji 🙏 ॐ शांति

Kishore Kumar's  Mere Sapno Ki Rani we used to sing together...and he had such fun movements and expressions...not while driving of course... Rhim Jhim is the first song I kind of learned... Now Monsoon is coming and he isn't here to sing with me... Mere Naina Sawan Bhadon

Tears of happiness glistening in her eyes mom whispered: ..An elephant...I always wanted to see an elephant...and with that she turned and put her forehead against the animals trunk ... and like this they stood ....  He is telling me stories....stories of India....  And like this they kept on standing while the sun was setting and Mumbai was teaming around them...

Hope

  I keep on bumping into the sharp edges of our memories together..hoping that time will make them round and smooth and happy as we were happy... desperately wanting to look back and smile seeing you smile back at me .. holding on to my new reality, grasping for the hand of the one who loves me now.. who let's me cry and grieve for you and gives me hope and love for the new "us"... Moving forward hand in hand.
