The demise of Bharat Ratna vocal empress Smt. Lata Mangeshkar evoked a sense of the end of an era, and indeed it did. When 'Lata Mangeshkar', the seven-syllable swaravalya Laukikartha, was inducted a year ago, there was a universal feeling that not just one singer, but the 'end of an era' had come to an end. She was truly aware that an era had come to an end. Today is Lata Didi's first death anniversary. On that occasion, Prasad Mirasdar's experience of watching the funeral on TV while watching Latadidi's funeral has been published on Storytell Marathi through the audio story 'Vishwache Aart Latadidi' written by Prasad Mirasdar. Storytell Marathi has appealed to listen to this tribute while remembering him today.
The news of the death of Bharatratna Lata Mangeshkar, who covered not only India but the entire world with her voice, was heard and the TV was switched on unknowingly. There was mourning all over India. The world seemed to stand still for a while. Songs in the voice of Latadidi T.V. One after the other was being planted above. The memories of his good friends were being awakened. The only emotion that came to my mind while listening to that voice that pervaded the entire universe was anguish...! Along with the sadness caused by Latadidi's passing away, the feeling of compassion awakened in the heart by her vocals was extraordinary and the prayer that this compassion should always remain in the hearts of all came again and again. It was a fantastic experience!
