Asha Bhosle shares why she and Lata Mangeshkar used to wear white sarees
Asha and Lata did have professional competition spirits, but at home, they had a lot of affection for one another. When Asha came on Amrita Rao and RJ Anmol’s podcast titled Couple of Things, Asha remembered the deep and unspoken bond they had with one another; despite having their individual music journeys, they had different personalities at home. Asha also shared why she and Didi used to wear white sarees. In her words:
“Didi (Lata Mangeshkar) and I used to wear white sarees all the time. We thought white suited our complexion better. If we wore other colors, we would look darker. Later, I started wearing pink sarees, and didi would give me a side-eye, but I slowly began adding colors with pink.”
