el 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.
The magic however continues undiminished. Asha, being so rare and undauntedly full of energy, is constantly busy and yet always exudes an air of cheery calm. She is devoted mother and grandmother. Between hectic recording schedules and constant touring, she makes to browse through books and art galleries wherever she is. A voracious reader and lover of art, she is the 'Renaissance Woman', reveling in life and in everything it has to offer. source: Goa World -Asha Bhonsle in Kuwait
