Lata Mangeshkar's Iconic Song Enchants Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2025

On August 2025, attendees at the prestigious Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in New York City were treated to an unexpected surprise – the timeless melody 'Tere Mere Beech Mein' by the legendary Lata Mangeshkar. The iconic song, originally featured in the 1981 Bollywood hit Ek Duuje Ke Liye, played as the high-profile models gracefully walked the runway.

This unexpected ode to the Nightingale of India took the audience by storm, with Indian attendees erupting into thunderous applause as the beautiful models danced to the familiar tune. Veteran actress Rati Agnihotri, who had lip-synced the song in the original film, expressed her delight, stating, "What an honor! I was so lucky to have the great Lata ji sing for me in my very first film. 44 years down the line, the song is still hummed and remembered. Each time Lataji's 'Tere mere beech mein' plays in some corner of the world, I am also remembered. And to now have the song as part of such a prestigious event... this is what true art is all about... timeless, borderless."

This marks the first time an Indian song has been featured at a renowned international fashion show, showcasing the global reach and timeless appeal of Bollywood music.
