\n\tAsha was admitted at the hospital on late Saturday with a chest infection and exhaustion, her granddaughter Zanai Bhosle said in a social media post.<\/p>\n

\n\tAsha\u2019s timeless voice resonated across a film-obsessed India for nearly eight decades, recorded on about 12,000 songs. She boldly embraced cabaret and Western-influenced melodies to forge a distinct musical identity that stood uniquely apart from her sister, Lata Mangeshkar, herself a legendary voice revered as the \u201cMelody Queen.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAsha\u2019s death was widely condoled.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI am deeply saddened\u201d by her passing, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi said in a social media post.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cHer unique musical journey spanning decades has enriched our cultural heritage and touched the hearts of countless people around the world,\u201d Modi said. \u201cFrom soulful melodies to spirited compositions, her voice carried a timeless brilliance.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBorn on Sept. 8, 1933, Asha Bhosle was initiated into music by her father Dinanath Mangeshkar, who was also a trained singer. All her four siblings became accomplished singers and musicians.<\/p>\n

\n\tAsha\u2019s first marriage, in 1949, ended in separation in 1960. Her second marriage was to iconic music composer R.D. Burman in 1980. She is survived by a son and grandchildren.<\/p>\n
