Lata Mangeshkar’s fans and followers received a special treat on her 92nd birthday: a song she recorded more than 20 years ago for a movie that never hit the screen.
It was shared by filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj, who is known for directing Omkara and Haider.
“What emerges from a long lost tape is a record of tenderness, beauty and melody,” Vishal tweeted, sharing the song. “The echo of the past resonates with the spirit of the Nightingale of India.”
The song, ‘Theek Nahin Lagta’, was recorded in the 1990s, written by Gulzar and has now been released under Vishal’s music label, VB Records.
Vishal has directed a video for the song as well. It features Lata’s throwback photos and interesting facts from her life.
