Lata Mangeshkar launches Marathi album on Gudi Padwa

Legendary singer Lata Mangeshkar has launched her Marathi album Bhavartha Mauli on the occasion of Gudi Padwa. The album is a collection of 10 devotional Marathi songs, introduced and sung by the veteran singer and composed by her brother Pandit Hridaynath Mangeshkar. The songs are based on the works of Marathi saint and 13th century poet Sant Dnyaneshwar.

“It is an absolute honour and a privilege that I am able to present the poetic works of the great saint and poet Sant Dnayeshwar to this generation. Through this album called Bhavaarth Mauli, my brother Hridaynath and I have made a humble attempt to introduce each of these poems by a commentary, explaining and unravelling the spirituality and essence of the poetry,” Lata Mangeshkar said.

“I hope the audience has the same spiritual experience listening to these beautiful compositions just as we have had in bringing them to you,” she added. —IANS
