The legendary singer Lata Mangeshkar passed away last year on February 6th, 2022. Mangeshkar won several awards and honors, including the Bharat Ratna (2001), India's highest civilian award, Padma Bhushan (1969), Padma Vibhushan (1999), and Dadasaheb Phalke Award (1989).
While the full life of the legendary singer Lata Mangeshkar is an open book, there is something about her that not many know. Were you aware that, besides singing in many languages, Lata Mangeshkar had even acted in a film? The film's name was ‘Pahili Mangalagaur,’ directed by R.S. Junnarkar. Besides Lata Mangeshkar, the film also starred Vishnupant Jog, Shahu Modak, and Snehprabha Pradhan. The film was released in 1942.
The same information was even tweeted by the Indian Nightingale herself on social media. She had posted, stating, “Namaskar. In 1942, I played the role of a child artist in the film 'Pahili Mangalagaur,' where I portrayed the younger sister of the heroine. On the occasion of the arrival of the Chaitra month, there was a song that I and Snehprabha Pradhan ji sang and acted in. That song is for all of you."
