Lata Mangeshkar is Lata Mangeshkar. Nobody can ever touch her.
My father, Aparesh Lahiri, was a musician too, and at a very young age, I was geared up for a career in music.
Lata Mangeshkar is a living legend. She has enthralled millions of hearts all over the world with her music.
I don't have words for her. I only know there will be not another Lata Mangeshkar.
My parents, Aparesh and Bansari Lahiri were very famous singers from Kolkata.
You can't compare Lata Mangeshkar with anyone.
I am extremely lucky I have done so many songs with Lata Mangeshkar.
I grew up listening to Hindi and Marathi songs of Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosale.
My father Apresh Lahiri and mother Bansari Lahiri were great composers of their time.
I feel very lucky that I got to work with Lata Mangeshkar, Asha didi and many more in the 1980s.
I faced failure with my first film, 'Khamoshi.' All of us have our highs and lows, except Lata Mangeshkar.
There can never be another Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhosle, Kishore Kumar and Mohammed Rafi they are in different league.
My favourites are Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhosle, Kishore Kumar and Mohammed Rafi. They are the four legends. I have worked with them in hundreds of songs.
I am huge fan of Lata Mangeshkar, Kishore Kumar, Mohammad Rafi, Ghulam Ali and Mehdi Hassan. Listening to these people inspired me to become a singer.
There are two things that I hold close to my heart. One is that I got the opportunity to playback sing for actor Mr. Amitabh Bachchan and second was working with playback singer Lata Mangeshkar.
Every man cannot be Raj Kapoor, like how every singer cannot be Lata Mangeshkar or Mohd Rafi.
