Asha Bhosle, Vidya Balan get emotional, reminisce on moments with Lata didi!

“As a new actress I was watching Lata Mangeshkar with awe, at an event. Later, I mustered the courage to actually call her. I heard her divine voice on the phone, she sent me a sari home and it was a boon to me. I always wanted to wear this sari and show her one day, but today was meant to be. And here I am wearing this sari, and receiving the prestigious Master Deenanath Mangeshkar Award. It is indeed a blessing for me and as I speak, I am shaking. Thank you so much for this honour bestowed upon me.“ Thus spoke actress Vidya Balan at the award ceremony held at Shanmukhananda Hall.
