Asha Bhosle represents the wondrous spirit of human resilience in all its sonorous splendour. Within not up to two months of her daughter’s death, the singer has pulled herself up and has found solace in music.
Asha’s only daughter Varsha committed suicide Oct 8 and ever because the veteran singer were lying low. In fact, family and friends say she had gone into depression, which apparently gripped her with frightening intensity.
However, way to music, Asha has gradually begun to heal and become emotionally healthy.
“If it wasn’t for music, the tragedy would have destroyed her. Ashaji has immersed herself completely into music,” a source with reference to the singer said.
“She has again started doing riyaaz religiously every morning and evening like an eager student of music. It has helped her to regain her composure, given her hope, strengthened her resolve to hold on,” the source added.
She now plans to carry a comeback concert in January, which might be devoted to her daughter Varsha.
Moreover, the veteran singer’s debut film “Mai”, which was delayed due to the bereavement, is ready to hit the screens in January.
“Ashaji has completely submerged her grief in her music. She sounds better today than she did six months ago. It’s a miracle. But then she is an excessively strong woman,” said the source. – IANS
