A star is gone, but will forever be frolicking with her legacy and a voice that is simply unforgettable. As Asha Bhosle passed away, Tabu's post from 5 days back hit the deepest emotional core.
Asha Bhosle passed away at the age of 92. The legendary singer was admitted to Breach Candy Hospital after suffering from extreme exhaustion and a chest infection. It was on April 12, 2026, when the reports about Asha's passing surfaced, and it left her nationwide fans in grief.
With a career spanning seven decades, Asha Bhosle began her career back in 1943 by singing her first song for the Marathi film Majha Bal in 1943. Asha Bhosle's fans and close ones have been sharing tributes to her through social media. And one of the posts, which is not a tribute, but actually 5 days back, grabbed significant attention. The post was from Tabu, who penned a deeply emotional note, which now feels melancholic as the actress's wish for a unique gift for the legendary singer remained unfulfilled.
Taking to her social media, Tabu shared a post that featured Asha Bhosle with her. Sharing the post, the actress wrote that on her birthday, she got a beautiful gift from the singer, and the gift is a guitar. The post featured the photo of the guitar as well. In the note, Tabu wrote that some moments could never be forgotten and some things remain as one of the most prized possessions, and this guitar is exactly the same to her.
Tabu further penned that she wished to sing to the singer one day with the same guitar, and as it seems, her wish remained unfulfilled, and it's such a haunting melancholy that people cannot easily get over, and this is the reason the post hit so hard now that the star is no more.
Asha Bhosle will always be someone who is immortal. With the reports of her not being well since April 11, 2026, the attention has been on her 7-decade-long singing career and personal life. Speaking about her personal life, she had been married twice. Asha was born to Pandit Deebanath Mangeshkar and his Gujarati wife Shevanti.
Asha grew up in a musically rich household, as her father was an actor and classical singer on the Marathi musical stage. When she was only 9, her father passed away, which led her and her elder sister, Lata Mangeshkar, to singing and acting to support their family from a young age. From a salary of Rs. 100 to making a net worth of Rs. 250-300 crore (as of 2026), one can only imagine the legacy Asha Bhosle had. At the age of 16, Asha Bhosle eloped with Ganpatrao Bhosle and got married to him. They welcomed two children, and when she was pregnant with her third child, she moved back to her maternal home after being mistreated by her in-laws.
The duo has three kids: Hemant, Varsha, and Anand. Hemant and Varsha both passed away, the former due to cancer, and the latter ended her life. In 1960, Asha separated from Ganpatrao Bhosle. After two decades, Asha Bhosle gave love another chance and got married to Rahul Dev Burman in 1980 after a brief romance. She was six years older than RD Burman, and reportedly, his mom was against their relationship.
We wish Asha Bhosle's family strength to deal with this tough time!
