  • Big B, Sachin Tendulkar Wish Lata Mangeshkar On 87th Birthday
As melody queen Lata Mangeshkar turned 87 on Thursday, celebrities like Amitabh Bachhcan, Sachin Tendulkar and A.R. Rahman wished her good health and a long life.
 
Starting her career in 1943 at the age of 13 with the song "Naachu ya gade, khelu saari, mani haus bhaari…" for Marathi film "Kiti Hasaal", she ventured into Hindi cinema with the song "Paa laagu kar jori re" for Vasant Joglekar's movie "Aap Ki Seva Mein".
 
Composer Ghulam Haider gave Lata her first major break in 1948 with the song "Dil mera toda" in the film "Majboor". With "Aayega aanewaala", a song in the movie "Mahal", she registered one of her first musical hits. There was no looking back for her.
 
Referred to as the Indian Nightingale, some of her hit numbers are "Dil vil pyar wyar", "Bindiya chamkegi", "Tune o rangeele kaisa jaadu kiya", "Mere haathon mein", "Aaja shaam hone aayi", "Dil deewana bin sajna ke" and "Kitne ajeeb rishte hai yaha pe" among many. One of her most memorable renditions is of "Ae mere watan ke logon".
 
Here's what celebrities had to say on her birthday:
 
Amitabh Bachchan: Lata ji...(Lataji...whose voice is as sweet as honey, lot of respect to her and wishing her a very happy birthday.) 
 
Sachin Tendulkar: Lata didi. Times may change but your melodious voice and evergreen songs remain timeless.
