5959 Lata MangeshkarThe world's most recorded singer (well over 50,000 songs in five decades), Bharat Ratna Lata Mangeshkar's (1929-) first song came when she was barely 14 and struggling, fatherless, to bring up her siblings. By the time she was 30, she became, as Time described her," the undisputed and indispensable queen of Indian playback singing", admired in equal measure by the doyens of classical music to the average listener. A position still unchallenged. | Jitendra Arya
