, Telugu, Malayalam and Hindi for their versions. I think the songs will be a big rage like the Rangeela songs and I hope and pray that all my fans would love it. The other day I sang a song for the film 'Maa' and I had to sing in two different tones, that is one for the mother and one for the daugher.

Alex Fernandes : How do you feel here after a span of a decade and what surprises have you for the audience on Friday ?
Asha : Surprises tho kuch nahin. But I will be glad to see all of you grace this function as it will be one of the best, I think with Pandit Shivkumar and Ustad Zakir performing in our midst. It will be a privilege to see them perform and it will make me feel proud to see the two maestros perform in Kuwait.
Alex Fernandes : I feel like going on and on. My last question is a request when will be back sooner or later we would like to hear you sing in Arabic for our Kuwaiti citizens here who are also your avid fans ?
Asha : Singing is no problem. I can sing in any language as I translate the language in Hindi and then sing, whether it is Arabic or Russian I can sing it with flawlessness. Asha Bhonsle's achievements could easily fill several volumes. She has received the prestigious Filmfare Award (Indian equivalent of the Oscar) eight times and has been honoured with various awards from several government bodies, including the National Award, doctorates from the Universities of Amaravati and Jalgaon, the title 'Nightingale of Asia' from the Indo-Pakistan Association in the U.K, 14 Maharashtra state government awards and the coveted Sur Singer award also several times.
