Suniel Shetty's 'Border' wife now looks like this, once people were crazy about her blue eyes

Sharbani Mukherjee Latest Photos: Released in 1997, JP Dutta's film Border broke box office records. Every actor in this film has created a different place in people's hearts and minds. Based on the Indo-Pakistani War, Border starred Sunny Deol, Sunil Shetty, Jackie Shroff, Akshaye Khanna, Rakhi Gulzar, Pooja Bhatt, Tabu and Sharbani Mukherjee. In the meantime, Charbani has captivated people's hearts with powerful performances. At the same time, the name of the actress who drove most people crazy in the film was Sharbani Mukherjee whose blue eyes made people go crazy. This blue-eyed girl played Sunil Shetty's wife in the movie Border. In such a situation, now, 25 years later, Sunil Shetty's wife, Sharvani, let me tell you where she is and what she is doing. Border Film's Sharvani's Blue Eyes Sharbani Mukherjee belongs to the world of cinema. Sharbani was born in 1969 to a Mukherjee family. Sharbani has gathered the biggest discussion about her beauty and blue eyes. Sharbani made her Bollywood industry debut as a child actress with her film Haiwan. However, he gained the most recognition after the movie Border. Few people know that Sharbani Mukherjee, Kajol and Rani Mukherjee are cousins. In reality, his grandmother Sati Rani Devi was the sister of Ashok Kumar and Kishore Kumar. Under such circumstances, when Sharbani entered the film industry and made her debut in the Bollywood world, she left a deep impression on people's hearts and minds with her beauty, but despite all this, her career did not show anything special. . Sharbani Mukherjee's many beautiful songs have also reached the top in the film industry and are still often heard on people's lips. Sharbani Mukherjee plays Sunil Shetty's wife in the film Border. Sunil Shetty's song in the film, 'Ae Jaate Huye Lamho Zara Thehro Zara Thehro', on her way back to the border from her honeymoon, is still on people's favorite songs list. Coins didn't work on the movie screen. Apart from Border, Sharbani Mukherjee has also worked in many films like Mitti and Ansh but her pennies haven't worked much in the film industry. Under such circumstances, he left the Bollywood industry and switched to the Bhojpuri and Malayalam industries. His first film 'Dharti Kahe Pukar Ke' was a huge hit in the Bhojpuri film industry, but his pennies didn't do much in the southern film industry either. Popularity gained from album songs Besides this, Sharbani has left a deep impression on people's hearts and minds with Pakistani singer Shazia Manzoor's famous song Ghar Aaja Sonia. In this song, she played the role of a mute girl. Sameer Soni starred alongside Sharbani in the song. This song was one of the best songs of its era. The look of 54-year-old Sharbani has completely changed today. The Charvani we saw in the movie Border 25 years ago and the Charvani today are very difficult to recognize.

My ideal morning is exactly this: wake up early, have breakfast with my mom, take a shower while listening to my favorite indie mellow songs, do pottery, cook lunch, settle on the couch to watch gilmore girls while having lunch, go on a post lunch walk with dad to look at the building cats. All this puts me in such a good mood. But I know soon it's all going to go away. I'm going to enter the drudgery of corporate law firms. How will I feel my sense of individuality intact? How will I remain soft and sweet? How much of myself am I giving up to ensure I have a secure future?

balh2 31.08.21 lb

priya stops the auto to let ram in, but he's whisked away in the now-fixed car by his posse, and she's like yeahhhhhhh seems about right for rich ppl, and goes her way.

very subtle playing of song show title is based on. ram hums along happily while priya tells auto bhaiyya to pls turn it off. lol she really does hate any type of sentimentality, and i'm here for this peak grumpy girl representation.

blah blah time waste establishing ram's family. aaaaaaaaaand they have shubhaavi choksey playing his mom when she's the same age as him irl. wonderful. best. very nice. i'm not angry about this at all.

snobby rich ppl greeting exchange. air kisses missing.

priya comes home to discover maitreyi and her husband are visiting. she just ignores them and walks into her room.

meanwhile ram walks into heartache after heartache. ek toh sagaai went on without him, and shivi's toast is only for her other brother shubham and her mom and her besties. (one of whom looks very familiar, where do i know her from???????) anyway someone give ram a (non-vegan) cupcake to feel better from having a shitty fam.

vedu notices ram and points him out to shivi, who's suddenly all RAM BHAIIIIIIIIIIIII, MY BIGGEST SUPPORTERRRRRRRR. pssssh.

oh btw, that fucker who wanted to use that totally non happening video for blackmail seems to be vedu's husband/???

ponky from naagin 5 is a friend of ram's. but he's a literal fetus???? i'd have thought he was a younger brother ala rudra.

priya's brother has his fucking shoes on her bed and mereko jo gussa aa raha hai na by goddddddd. YOU JUST CAME IN FROM THE FUCKING RAIN YOU DIRTYASS............

anyway priya's like idgaf that maitreyi married my ex bf.

"humein khush rehne ke liye kisi ki zaroorat nahi hoti." she's saying words i agree with, but show immediately cops out by showing her tearing up and blubbering "i don't need anyone, i'm fiiiiiiiiiine" unconvincingly. guh. idk if i'm gonna be able to watch this show if it keeps diluting its messages like this.

ram toh udhar giving lecture on baarish. BRO ENOUGH. I AM SO DONE WITH THIS TOPIC OF CONVERSATION. itna toh baarish se lagaan ke champaaner waalon ko pyaar nahi tha jitna iss show mein log karte hain.

priya doing a very convincing mimickry of kinda pretentious maitreyi to entertain one new younger sibling. how many fucking siblings does priya have??????? (too fuckin many, is the answer.)

i do not appreciate the characterization of ram's chamcha friend's wife as a nagging ball and chain type.

new mangatar and bitchy shubham are snidely remarking about ram and his bechaara broken dil thanks to vedika.

ok if shivaay was obnoxiously self assured, ram is just......... almost annoyingly roll over and show your belly type of soft and diplomatic and people pleasing. only extremes for nakuul sir i guess.

adi's wife (brinda?) catches him looking out into baarish and shedding a few silent tears, and she's here to nag HIM now about getting a wife. yes brinda, because you make marriage look like SUCHHHHH AN APPEALING PROSPECT.

ram's like no i don't need anyone and then wistfully stares at vedu saying i'll never find someone who loves like she does her husband.

brinda's like it's all fake, dude. real couples fight and argue and cuss at each other and wow.... i think brinda and adi might need couples' counseling coz..... you're not SUPPOSED to be so complacent about your marriage being so dysfunctional.

oh breakup was 6-7 saal pehle. ok yeah sir you should have gotten over it by now. therapy for you too.

NO NOT THE EK TARFA PYAAR KI TAAQAT SPEECH NO FUCKIN NO OK

SHUBHAAVI AS NAKUUL'S MOM WILL NEVER NOT ENRAGE ME. I NEVER THOUGHT IT'D GET WORSE THAN MANASI SALVI, BUT LOVE THAT TELLYWOOD MANAGES TO FUCKING ENRAGE ME WITH THIS SHIT WITH EVERY NEW SHOW.

priya refuses to have ice cream because of her principles against capitalism. which............... ok??? there's no ethical consumption under capitalism, sis. just eat the overpriced ice cream.

just realised that the eldest sister is played by the actress who was jai's elder sister in just mohabbat.

anyway eldest sister (sara) and youngest sister (sandy) are team!priya over maitreyi.

priya is as anti-shaadi as me and asks sara if she's happy (priya clearly doesn't think much of sara's husband who leaves all the child-rearing to her, in addition to running the bakery) and sara's like "maate, mujhpe mat shuru ho jaate, pls" snort. yeah, no one likes their bad choices rubbed in their faces.

oh, their dad ran away after allll the betiyaan and married someone else. zindagi gulzar hai sitch hai.

more of priya asserting that she's happy single and show undermining her with the music cues and character reactions. fuck this messaging. why can't it be that she's genuinely happy single and ram is just a good complementary partner she finds and decides to change her mind about marriage coz that's what they want for themselves. i hate this black and white nonsense.

sisters are forcing priya to go on a date (with whom?????) and the scene just cuts off awkwardly.

ram has PINK shoes on today. man this is so a nakuul thing, this one (1) atrangi styling element of an otherwise formally dressed man.

ram also being set up on date by adi/brinda. should be with someone else, i guess. i don't think brinda and priya run in the same circles.

ram is right in that the least these ppl could do is ask consent before setting it all up.

priya is grumpily refusing to do any thaam jhaam dress up for date. good for her.

lol @ sara trying to sneak away priya's beloved raincoat.

anyway psych 101 shit ki priya has confidence issues and is so down on herself that she rejects everyone before they can reject her.

lmao priya is me at hearing the date is in some hoity toity place where they give small portions for exorbitant amounts of money.

sara di gets call ki some "unhone" didn't pay their share of bakery emi? the nikkamma husband? or some other business partner??

priya is out on warpath to go confront that person.

she's psyching herself up outside their door. i think it's her dad?

OMG CHACHI FROM IMMJ2 LMAO, IS SHE THE SECOND WIFE?

ok dad's a rudeass fuck. he's all she's not my daughter, but all ready to dole out thappads when she says it like it is. sperm donors like these should be kneed in the nads.

idgi tho? there's ONE beta there tho???? is akshay not his biological son?????

anyway, priya is right in thinking men suck. #yesAllMen

precap: her date niiiiiiicely validates the misandry by being a fucking jerk. looks like ram is cheering her up in a sweet moment? priya catches akshay getting cosy with.... shivi i guess??? idk all these girls look the same to me. #faceblindness

30 June Kalyanji Virji Shah (Kalyanji-Anandji): 92nd Birth Anniversary

By

Siraj Syed

Kalyanji Virji Shah (Kalyanji-Anandji): 92nd Birth Anniversary 30 June 1928-24 August 2000

From sleeve notes written for SaReGaMa’s LEGENDS CD set in 2009: More than half a century after the cobra swayed to the clavioline, masquerading as the been, in ‘Tan dole mera man dole’, its notes still reverberate across India, and in many other parts of the world. It was, and remains, Kalyanji Virji Shah’s best-known musical signature. Kalyanji had first used the instrument in a film called Naag Panchami (1953, music Chitragupta), but that went largely un-noticed. ‘Tan dole’, a Hemant Kumar tune from a box-office hit, was the chart-topper of 1954, so listeners took good notice of its mesmerising been theme. Developed in France by a designer named Constant Martin, the clavioline was introduced in 1947. Five years later, musician Kalyanji was playing it here, in India, in film song takes. Four years after Nagin, Kalyanji had arrived as music director, with Samrat Chandragupta. And the following year, younger brother Anandji, who was a child actor and chorus singer too, joined him to create the K-A team that stood firm for over 40 years. Nevertheless, as Anandji, some four years younger (now 88), is often heard saying, “Kalyanjibhai is watching all this from above. He is very much with us in spirit.” Kalyanji Virji Shah died in the year 2000, at the age of 72.

Born in Kundrodi village of the Mundra taluka in Kutchh, the brothers grew up in Mumbai, where their father ran a food-grain store. Inclined more towards music than academics, they developed the self-taught ability to play a host of instruments, and formed part of school bands. By 1944-45, the teenager siblings had started playing in film song recordings. Big brother set up his own band in 1950, calling it Kalyanji and Party, with Purshottam Upadhyaya singing ‘Too mera chaand maen teree chaandnee’, the super-hit Naushad tune from Dillagi, to thunderous encores. The band performed in Bombay and in other nearby towns. For a while, the businessman in him did surface, and Kalyanji started a tailoring shop in partnership with a friend. Destiny, however, ensured that the shop did not prosper, drawing Kalyanji even closer to a world where a needle was something that played a gramophone record, not a device to stitch clothes with.

Many of us have heard the popular tunes the brothers composed for films like Samrat Chandragupta, Bedard Zamana Kya Jane, Chhalia and Bluff Master, the last two being the earliest directorial forays of director Manmohan Desai, but few would be aware that it was producer Subhash Desai, Manmohan’s brother, who gave Kalyanji his music directorial his break. Impressed with his prowess at song recordings of various recognised composers, Subhash saw a competent future music director in Kalyanji, and made him an offer that was strange, but nevertheless one that he could not refuse. Would he agree to a contract offering him 11 film assignments as music director, with a fee of Rs. 5,000 for the first film, Rs. 10,000 for the second…a recurring Rs. 5,000 increment per film, non-negotiable? The offer was too good to resist, so Kalyanji agreed, but he did ask Subhash, “Why11 films? Why not 10? Or 12?” The reply was convincing, “Eleven is my lucky number.” As it transpired, they did not do 11 films together, but Kalyanji’s career choice was made.

The K-A success story begins with Kalyanji’s kingly debut, Samrat Chandragupta. ‘Chahe paas ho’ is a touching lyric, with a tinge of sadness, as is the next number, ‘Door kahin tu chal’, another Rafi-Lata duet, from Bedard Zamana Kya Jaane, both penned by Bharat Vyas. With a title like Madari, there had to be a snake-charmer and his been in play, and the theme track, penned by Faruk Kaiser and rendered by Lata and Mukesh, indeed provided flashbacks of the legendary Kalyanji patent. Soon after he wrote his first song for them in Chandrasena, Gulshan Bawra penned a real gem in Satta Bazar, and this time the brothers invited their mentor Hemant Kumar to join Lata in the recording room, with amazing results. Who can forget ‘Tumhe yaad hoga’? Not yet the He Man he was to become in his later years, Dharmendra in Dil Bhi Tera Hum Bhi Tere was emoting to Mukesh’s emotion-charged playback, rendering Shamim Jaipuri’s rich poetry. Graduating from smaller set-ups into a Raj Kapoor vehicle, K-A hit big time in Chhalia. Nonsensical verse from a sensible writer, Qamar Jalalabadi, ‘Dum dum diga diga’, with Mukesh providing playback to Raj’s on-screen antics, set the aisles afire.

Soon, they were signed to compose for Mehndi Lagi Mere Haath, a Shashi Kapoor starrer, and Bluff Master. Both films enjoyed reasonable success and the music went around too. In Bluff Master, we find the rare phenomenon of four voices being used for the same actor: Mukesh, Hemant Kumar, Shamshad Begum (Shammi Kapoor in drag) and Rafi. It was Rafi who immortalised ‘Govinda ala re’ and sang the duet ‘Husn chala kuchh aisi chal’ with Lata. Anand Bakhshi wrote inspired lyrics for Phool Bane Angaare, and Mukesh, as usual, delivered them with consummate artistry. By 1964, K-A were in the Premier League. That very year, they came up with such melodious tracks as the lilting ‘Humsafar mere humsafar’ (Purnima), where they teamed up with Gulzar, a rarity, and the two Mukesh solos from Ji Chahta Hai and Himalaya Ki God Mein. The former was written by Majrooh, not a K-A regular. Another infrequent teaming worked very well, as Hasrat Jaipuri wrote and Rafi sang in great style, ‘Dil beqarar sa hai’ (Ji Chahta Hai). Melodious, hummable and catchy. A ghazal on Shammi Kapoor with Bakhshi writing and Rafi singing may not be a common occurrence, but just savour ‘Teri zulfen pareshan’ (Preet Na Jane Reet). Staying with Mukesh on Shashi, after MLMH, the duo came up with a moody duet in Juari, ‘Humsafar ab yeh safar kat jayega’. If there was still any doubt about the standing of the duo in the rankings, Jab Jab Phool Khile laid to rest all criticism. Every track was heard everywhere. The songs had it all: pathos, fun, longing, depression, pep. For both K-A and Anand Bakhshi, the success of JJPK was to remain a milestone forever.

Rafi provided playback for debutant Rajesh Khanna in the theme song of his debut vehicle, Raaz, re-uniting K-A with Shamim Jaipuri, producing haunting results. Indeevar’s lyrics sang of cruel fate in Dil Ne Pukara, and who better to voice them than Mukesh, as ‘Waqt karta jo wafa’. In the same vein was the Suhag Raat lament, ‘Khush raho’. Manna De came in to give playback for Pran in Upkar and Zanjeer, rendering two of his most acclaimed numbers. It took the duo 19 hours to record ‘Mere desh ki dharti’, the patriotic anthem of Upkar. Saraswatichandra, based on a literary classic, needed the linguistic mastery of Indeevar to weave in the songs, and the author of ‘Kasme vaade pyar vafa’ made it count. Filmfare awarded the duo for the best music of the year. It was still pristine K-A, full of melody, working with Lata and Mukesh. Another award followed some years later, for Kora Kagaz, which had a pathos-laden title-track in the voice of Kishore. Not many might realise, but K-A used Kishore Kumar for the first time in the 1968 film Suhag Raat, singing a sad song, a full decade after the duo had started their career. A comic song was rendered by Manna De while Mukesh was called-upon to put across the other sad lyric.

Only Rafi could have set swinging mood for Shashi Kapoor to gyrate on screen in ‘Nain milakar chaen churana’ (Aamne Saamne). Rafi for Shashi it was again in Ek Shriman Ek Shrimati and Raja Saab. Part of the female vocals in Raja Saab came from Suman Kalyanpur. Suman had sung for K-A in MLMH and JJPK too, and was to partner Manhar in his first hit number in Vishwas. Giving Hemlata her break in the same film, K-A paired her with good-old friend Mukesh. Soon, the duo was to show its preference for rotating the strike, training and honing a host of budding singing talent, while reverting to the established names with equal regularity. Like a lot of extremely popular Mahendra-Manoj Kumar, Kishore-Amitabh Bachchan and Kishore-Rajesh Khanna outings. Incidentally, K-A took three days to record the back-ground score of Suhaag Raat, while they needed a whole month for Purab Aur Paschim. For the ‘Om jai Jagdeesh Hare’ bhajan of PAP, the composers used 50 chorus singers to get the effect normally created by violins. They called it human resonance. Delay (natural echo) was the highlight of ‘Mere mitwa’ (Geet). The child-like double speed of ‘Na sun sun sun bura’ (Priya) was simply achieved by recording on spool-tape at a particular speed and playing it back at double the speed. Most of their work was done at the Famous, Tardeo, recording studio.

There is Rafi, and not Kishore, for Rajesh Khanna, oozing sensuality as only he could, in Chhoti Bahu: ‘Yeh raat hai pyasi pyasi’, echoing musician hero Rajendra Kumar’s heart-rending call in Geet and charting a romantic route for Dharmendra in Kab Kyon Aur Kahan? He also offers love lessons in Upaasna; in the Haath Ki Safai duet, he makes a solemn promise of eternal love; and he goes on Dilip Kumar for the intoxicating ‘Peete peete’ duet with Asha Bhosle in Bairaag. As Western as it gets is the rare title chorus ‘Pretty pretty Priya’ (Priya) and as Sanskritised as it can get is the Kishore hilarity ‘Priye praneshwari’ (Hum Tum Aur Woh). Kalyanji-Anandji made Shatrughan Sinha sing in Kashmakash, Amitabh Bachchan in Laawaris and Anil Kapoor in Chameli Ki Shaadi. They also gave ample opportunities to the emerging talent of 70s’ generation, as you can sample on the Shailendra Singh, Suresh Wadkar, Anwar, Alka Yagnik and Kanchan tracks.

Known for their hundreds of stage performances, in India and abroad, both brothers also enjoyed a sturdy reputation as funsters, with a joke for every occasion and a keen sense of self-deprecating humour. They once famously described themselves as medical practitioners. “We offer all lines of treatment. If some producer approaches us with symptoms that demand a classical approach, we recommend the Ayurvedic style of medicine: Slow, but efficacious in the long-term. On the other hand, if some film-maker wants to experiment with the musical score of his film, we suggest Homoeopathic type of tunes: May work, may not. Some element of risk is involved. If, however, he wants the juke-boxes to jingle and listeners to start singing along instantaneously, we churn out Allopathic compositions: Like injections, they have instant, strong effect, but the effect may wear out sooner.” Music, along with laughter, is the best medicine known to mankind. Kalyanji-Anandji have already issued a statutory warning to your troubles to keep away, for there’s no place for them, ‘Mere angne men tumhara kya kaam hae?’

[moontimemumblings]

All in the April evening...

Summer evening. I see leaves fall, bleeding their colours into the Earth. A few friends and I walk on the pavement and the music concert ground slowly looms into our vision. There’s a sudden young and endearing rush in our merry chatter which we know will be soon silenced by a violin and a flute bringing alive some Hindustani raagas.

We are early and so we choose the best seats. My roving eyes hunger for his presence. He isn’t there yet – the pointy-nosed poet who is tired of all the poetry on moon. So much for being a poet; I roll my eyes but admit to myself that I am infinitely amused by this aversion of his. I sigh and remember that I have a book of Gulzar’s poetry in my bag – I Swallowed the Moon. The moon. Ha! I read a few poems, few Urdu words tickling my tongue, settling slowly under my skin, thrumming in my veins. woh yaar hai jo khushboo ki tarah, jiski zubaan Urdu ki tarah... that beloved who is like sublime fragrance, whose language is as sweet as Urdu... I read on.

woh jo shayar tha, chup sa rehta tha behki behki si baatein karta tha aankhein kaanon pe rakh ke sunta tha... there was a poet, a quiet one, whose words would swerve and change their course often, who would listen with his eager eyes kept wide open on his ears... Gulzar’s poet has a face in my head; he is now mine. My girls remind me of a gorgeous song and we hum along: dhaage tOD laao chaandni se noor ke... pluck out gently those strings of radiance from the moonlight... The moon. Again.

I see him at the entrance, a handsome man in a turmeric-hued shirt. I walk up to him, a tinge of haste when I fling myself into his arms. He smiles, his calm brown eyes beaming mischievously breaking my heart. “I want to meet your friends; I’m tired of talking to you today,” he teases me. Pushing me aside, gently, he goes and shakes hands with them. “Hmmm, charming,” I tell myself, watching him from a distance, overjoyed in a budding romance. My girls give me a look of approval after a few minutes of conversation (oh, it’s bloody important!), a bit of friendly taunt in their nods. I’m a happy soul.

The artists arrive and the stage is a soft amber glow. Chandeliers above are mute and still but glorious. I notice how the arena is full of people now. We fall silent; the artists are busy tuning their instruments. Sometimes uptight in giving directions to the sound department personnel, but still charming is their need for perfection.

The magic begins. Raaga Shuddh Kalyan begins to bloom, followed by a beautiful rendition of Raaga Rageshree – a few plucked strings and breath striking soundholes becomes music, divine and absolute in its influence over us. A violin and a flute stirring and cajoling and hurting gently the air between us. Music, bringing cheerful anguish in those euphoric moments of our gasping, like the joyful return of a dream; bringing peace and equilibrium when shaDja is sustained like it’s holding the whole universe from falling apart; bringing joy in those delightful glides from one svara, note, to another – meend, as they call it (a detail that brings to mind a dear person who’s an ardent lover of Hindustani music). There is an almost spiritual sort of liberation in the new mental, emotional space created in our hearts and minds.

After what felt like an eternity of blissful being, we walk out soon after the concert ends, somewhat rehumanised, and I still feel a few niceties of the raagas resonating in me. The world is now a surreal place and in twilight it shines softly, timidly. He takes my hand in his and our fingers entwine and I tremble, demurely I’d like to believe. I am scared that all my scars might make me a nervous wreck like they did on the first evening I met him, that my impulses that now amuse this man might one day drive him away. But I calm myself and remind myself of the significance of the now, this moment. I try to feel his fingers between mine even closely, swooning in his very presence.

My girls walk ahead of us, their presence meaning a great strength to me in times of such sweet uncertainties. One of them, who’s nursing a recently-broken heart, breaks down just before boarding her taxi and I suddenly feel guilty about holding hands with this almost-lover of mine. I rush to her and hold her tightly and I can feel the other soul-sister’s reassuring presence doing its job quietly in pacifying the one in my arms. The sobs stop and we bid her a good night.

Now the three of us, standing silent for a minute under a moonless sky, decide to walk on until we find a rickshaw or a cab for ourselves. We don’t say much, and for that moment, we are enough even with all our broken hearts and broken dreams. We all have plans for tomorrows that might tear us apart from one another but for now, we are here and that’s all that matters. For all those tomorrows that really don’t exist, we seem to say, “try us,” even as we walk as just three more obscure faces in the crowd. For now, we don’t want to sell our todays to buy tomorrows that are still non-existent.

The friend walks ahead of us again, and he takes my hand in his again. Tenderly. And we happily fade away into the night, our nebulous emotions making us nothing more and nothing less than human, all too human.

25 Moods Of Asha Bhosle

She sung a song for every mood, every situation. Sukanya Verma dives into Asha Bhosle's magnificent repertoire and pulls out gems on her 85th birthday.

The difference between a good singer and a great singer is that one sticks to the tune while the other brings it to life.

From the era of black-and-white to colour to 3D, the matchless Asha Bhosle has breathed life into thousands of magical songs for numerous decades and regaled us with her endless energy and mastery of sur and taal.

Her inimitable voice -- be it as the heroine, vamp or supporting actor -- is responsible for countless memorable moments on the big screen and off it. Truly, her rare gift has produced a song for every emotion, occasion and ambience.

One of India's most loved voices turns 85 on September 8. Rediff.com celebrates the legendary songstress and her astonishing versatility with a compilation of 25 songs that bring to life various moods and set-ups.

Aiye Meherbaan, Howrah Bridge (1958) Mood: Seductive Music: O P Nayyar

Asha Bhosle livens up the atmosphere with her sensual rendition of this timeless sizzler from Shakti Samanta's black-and-white mystery.

Bhanwra Bada Madaan, Sahib Bibi Aur Ghulam (1962) Mood: Playful Music: Hemant Kumar

Known to modulate her voice to match a song's feel, the singer is at her animated best when she conveys the liveliness of Shakeel Badayuni's lyrics.

Chura Liya Hai Tumne, Yaadon Ki Baarat (1973) Mood: Romantic Music: Rahul Dev Burman

Despite the overexposure, there's much affection and elegance in Asha's admission of love in this chartbusting number from Nasir Hussain's lost and found musical.

Justuju Jiski Thi, Umrao Jaan (1981) Mood: Heartbroken Music: Khayyam

While a misty-eyed Rekha expresses the pathos of the ill-fated courtesan on celluloid, Asha Bhosle exudes her heartfelt agony behind it.

Sabarmati Ke Sant Tune Kar Diya Kamaal, Jagriti (1954) Mood: Patriotic Music: Hemant Kumar

The celebrated singer pays a rich tribute to the Father of the Nation in this melodious creation of Satyen Bose's National Award-winning feature film.

Parde Mein Rehne Do, Shikar (1968) Mood: Mysterious Music: Shankar-Jaikishan

The Padma Vibhushan recipient gets all secretive and guarded while teasing her listeners with a guessing game of concealed identities that is picturised on her namesake, Asha Parekh.

O Mere Sona Re, Teesri Manzil (1966) Mood: Appeasing Music: R D Burman

The two Ashas come together yet again to kiss and make up with their sulking sona -- Shammi Kapoor -- in Vijay Anand's deft whodunit.

Chanda Re Chupe Rehna, Lajwanti (1958) Mood: Maternal Music: Sachin Dev Burman

Asha Bhosle is the sound of motherly love delivering a soothing lullaby, lip-synced by Nargis in this sentimental drama about an estranged maa-beti.

Jawani Jaaneman, Namak Halal (1982) Mood: Glamorous Music: Bappi Lahiri

Nobody blends sophistication and siren quite like Asha Bhosle. And that's exactly what the queen of flamboyance does with this snazzy Bappi beat.

Piya Tu Ab To Aaja, Caravan (1971) Mood: Anxious Music: R D Burman

At a time when women were portrayed as prudishly prim, Asha Bhosle not only acknowledges the aggressively sexy possibility of Monica but gives her a sensational twist, on par with Helen's on screen bravado in this no-holds barred cabaret treat.

Dum Maaro Dum, Hare Rama Hare Krishna (1971) Mood: Hippie Music: R D Burman

Nothing explains the wild aura of the 1970s better than Asha Bhosle's free-spirited rendition of the gypsy soul in RD's equally tantalising arrangement.

Khaali Haath Shaam Aayi, Ijaazat (1987) Mood: Melancholic Music: R D Burman

The pitch-perfect disappointment in Asha's rendering of the serene albeit sad notes of Khaali Haath communicate the loneliness in a hopeless situation perfectly.

Deva Ho Deva Ganpati Deva, Humse Badhkar Kaun (1998) Mood: Devotional Music: Raam-Laxman

Asha Bhosle collaborates with Mohammed Rafi, Shailendra and Bhupinder to celebrate the grand festival of Ganesh Chaturthi in this popular song from a long forgotten Mithun Chakraborty-Ranjeeta potboiler.

Tum Kitne Din Baad Mile, The Great Gambler (1979) Mood: Peeved Music: R D Burman

Do Lafzon may be the most popular on the soundtrack but Asha shows off her awe-inspiring range while letting off steam, anger and sarcasm in Tum Kitne dDin Baad Mile.

Jaane Jaan O Meri Jaane Jaan, Sanam Teri Kasam (1982) Mood: Party-hopper Music: R D Burman

RD's foot-tapping score was easily the USP of this typical poor boy-rich girl romance starring Kamal Haasan and Reena Roy.

And the husband-wife team burns the floor effortlessly with this East-West fusion leaving you a-ha, ha, ha-ing for more.

Nahi Nahi Abhi Nahi, Jawani Diwani (1972) Mood: Shy Music: R D Burman

Asha has this rare ability to act out the emotions of a scene within the song. And for this catchy number featuring Jaya Bachchan (then Bhaduri), the singer is delightfully demure as she resists the hero's eager advances.

Aao Huzoor Tumko, Kismat (1968) Mood: Drunk Music: O P Nayyar

Asha Bhosle humors Babita's intoxicated state and has fun with it to convey a lack of inhibition and control in this memorable ditty from Manmohan Desai's stable.

Yeh Saaye Hain, Yeh Duniya Hai, Sitara (1980) Mood: Reflective Music: R D Burman

Yahan Saare Chehre Hain Maange Hue Se... With grace and skill, a subdued Asha Bhosle brings life to Gulzar's insightful poetry about the emptiness that underlines the hustle bustle of show business.

saare Niyam Tod Do, Khubsoorat (1980) Mood: Rebellious Music: R D Burman

A clearly enthusiastic Asha Bhosle kickstarts a defiant non-cooperation movement, resonating the discipline vs carefree theme of Hrishikesh Mukherjee's feel-good flick.

Mere Mehboob Mein Kya Nahi, Mere Mehboob (1963) Mood: Proud Music: Naushad

Sisters and heavyweights of playback singing -- Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosle -- get together to tussle over the best mehboob in this silvery Naushad composition, brimming with exaggeration and adjectives.

Khatouba, Ali Baba Aur Chalees Chor (1980) Mood: Exotic Music: R D Burman

For Umesh Mehra's Indo-Russian take on the classic Arabian fairy tale, RD employs Middle-Eastern influences while Asha lends it zing and zest with her merry inflections.

Aa Dekhen Zara, Rocky (1981) Mood: Competitive Music: R D Burman

Even as Kishore Kumar (for Sanjay Dutt) and RD (for Shakti Kapoor) spar over words; Asha Bhosle competes with herself -- providing the voice for both Tina Munim and Reena Roy in everyone's favourite song about trash talking.

Jhuka Ke Sarr Ko Puchho, Satte Pe Satta (1982) Mood: Makeover time Music: R D Burman

Asha Bhosle turns romance coach with her how-to-win-a-girl's-heart-in-five-courteous-steps guidebook for her six scruffy brothers-in-law.

Pyar Ke Mod, Parinda (1989) Mood: Persuasive Music: R D Burman

The singer is at her soulful best for Madhuri Dixit in trying to convince Anil Kapoor to commit to a life of love and harmony in this sublime beauty from Parinda.

Rangeela Re, Rangeela (1995) Mood: Happy-go-lucky Music: A R Rahman

The youthful, exuberant and starry-eyed vibe of Rangeela's title track is lovingly captured in Asha Bhosle's eternally vivacious spirit. No wonder it became an instant hit.
