15 Nov
Summary
- Sudesh Bhosale was discovered by Asha Bhosle after a mimicry performance.
- Many assumed Sudesh Bhosale was Asha Bhosle's son due to their surname and duets.
- Asha Bhosle insisted on singing duets only with Sudesh Bhosale for 40 years.
Mimicry artist Sudesh Bhosale has detailed his enduring relationship with the late Asha Bhosle, a collaboration spanning decades. Bhosale's career took a significant turn when Asha Bhosle discovered his talent during a mimicry performance at Mumbai's National College, where he impersonated Amitabh Bachchan. This encounter marked the beginning of a special mentorship.
Over the years, due to their shared surname and frequent stage appearances together, many mistakenly believed Sudesh Bhosale was Asha Bhosle's son. He affectionately referred to their bond as akin to a mother and son, calling himself her son by 'dil' (heart).
Bhosale expressed gratitude for their long professional association, highlighting Asha Bhosle's commitment. For four decades, starting in 1986, she made it a point to sing duets exclusively with him. She even stipulated that if he were unavailable for a show, she would perform solos and refrain from duetting with anyone else.
