Anuradha Paudwal sang a plethora of cover versions of Lata Mangeshkar songs in the 90s, which were akin to modern remixes | Hindi Movie News – Times of India
She forgets to mention the scores of Lataji’s songs, which she plucked out of their natural habitat to make her own. She didn’t spare Lataji’s duets either. Through her own albums, Ms Paudwal set out to become another Lata Mangeshkar by singing the original’s songs.
Ms Paudwal actually started her musical journey with the Mangeshkars! She was actually a disciple of Hridaynath Mangeshkar. She visited the Mangeshkars regularly as Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosle’s brother Hridaynath’s disciple.
A reputed female singer who wishes to go unnamed says, “Anuradha had great potential. But she wanted to be Lataji. There can’t be two moons or two suns. Likewise another Lataji is impossible. She got the backing of music labels to attempt her impossible dream. Her first big hit in Subhash Ghai’s Hero happened when Lataji didn’t have time to record the song. It’s a pity Anuradha set such an impossible goal for herself. If only she had decided to be herself rather than Lataji, the sky would have been the limit for her.”
