Melody Queen Asha Bhosle comes up with a New Single ‘Saiyaan Bina’ at 91
It is a matter of pride that Indian Cinema’s Queen of Melody Asha Bhosle, at the age of 91 has come up with a New Single ‘Saiyaan Bina’ an ode to her late husband RD Burman and features Zanai, her grand-daughter.
Asha once, famously quoted that there is a vacuum amid heart and brain – that is where the soundbox lies.
The song – Saiyaan Bina Jag Soona – features Asha Bhosle herself along with her grand daughter Kum Zanai Bhosle. The video song starts with the iconic singer sifting through an album of Pancham Da. For the unversed, Zanai is an actor, singer, lyricist, music composer and a Kathak dancer. The song opens with the ever soulful charming voice of Asha Tai with Zanai’s classical dance steps to cap it. Produced by Apni Dhun, the song will be released on December 13.
Asha Bhosle has given the music world numerous soulful tracks ranging from pop, ghazals, Indian classical music and qawwalis. She has been part of the entertainment world for over eight decades.
At 91, when people largely think of relaxing and enjoying leisure with family members, Asha Bhosle is setting a new benchmark with a solo release.
Talking about numbers, Asha Bhosle has recorded more than 11,000 songs and is the most-recorded singer in the world.
Saiyaan Bina is special to the singer in many ways as it features the fourth generation of her family – granddaughter Zanai Bhosle – and her feelings for her late husband Rahul Dev Burman. Asha Tai has given voice to her feelings of loneliness after the loss of her husband in the song.
The video is shot in a monochrome light signifying the emotional state of Asha Bhosle. The moment she starts singing, the frames light up. The director has taken every frame with utmost care to depict her emotions like – the sitar signifying the pulling of the strings of her heart. Zanai adds the much-needed colour in the video with her noteworthy performance.
It’s well known in the industry that Zanai is granddaughter of Asha Bhosle but not many know that like her grandparents, she is also an accomplished singer, music composer, lyricist, musician and classical dancer. She started learning Kathak at the tender age of five.
