Kangana Ranaut, well known for her performance in the hit party song London Thumakda from the movie Queen, claimed she was offered an “insane amount of money” to perform weddings and private events. To make her point, the actor released an old clip of the singer Asha Bhosle discussing Lata Mangeshkar’s opposition to this practice.
Kangana posted a short video of Asha Bhosle from one reality programme and said, “Agree. Even though I have never danced at weddings or private parties, even though I have the most popular songs…denied an insane amount of money…glad to come across this video… Lataji is truly so inspiring.”
In the video, Asha discusses how Lata Mangeshkar, the famed singer who is her elder sister, once was offered a million dollars to perform at a wedding, but she turned it down. In the video, Asha discusses the offer and says, “Kaha 2 ghante Sirf AAP darshan dijiye humari Shadi mein….”
Among the best singers from India is Lata Mangeshkar. She passed away this year in February. When Lata wasn’t given a tribute during the Grammys and the Oscars, both held days following her demise, Kangana objected. She had, at the time, demanded a boycott of such awards on Instagram. “We must take strong stands against any local awards who claim to be international and yet ignore and intentionally sideline legendary artists because of their race or ideologies… both Oscar and Grammy failed to give tribute to Bharat Ratna Lata Mangeshkar Ji… our media should totally boycott these biased local events who claim to be global awards,” said Kangana.
Emergency, a film by Kangana, is now in process. The actress portrays former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in the film. Kangana frequently posts images and videos taken during the movie’s production. This historical drama also features Milind Soman, Anupam Kher, Mahima Chaudhry, Bhumika Chawla, and Shreyas Talpade.
