Contestant Ankita Mahua Giri gave a phenomenal performance on ‘Suno Sajna’ , originally sung by music legend Lata Mangeshkar. Asha Parekh ji couldn’t stop herself from remembering Lata ji as she recalled one of her interviews. Asha ji also expressed how grateful she feels to have performed on songs sung by both sisters, Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosle. Asha Parekh said, “Unhone kisi interview mein yeh kaha tha ke yeh gaana mere liye sabse mushkil gaana tha kyun ki unki jo murkhiyan jo thi woh bohot hi lambi thi aur high sur mein gaaya hain toh mujhe khudko lipsync karne mein thodi takleef hoti thi, issi taraf Asha ji sabse difficult gaana woh khud keh rahi thi woh tha Karvaan ka ‘Daiya Re Daiya Main Kahan Phasi’ bohot difficult, dono beheno ka yeh gaana. Main bohot lucky thi ki mere liye yeh dono gaane, jo mushkil gaane the woh mere naseeb mein tha.” (In one of her interviews, she had said that this song was the most difficult one for her because the vocal runs were very long and it was sung in a very high pitch, so even I found it a little difficult to lip-sync to it. Similarly, Asha ji herself said that her most difficult song was ‘Daiya Re Daiya Main Kahan Phasi’ from the film Caravan it was extremely challenging. These songs by both the sisters were very difficult, and I feel very lucky that both of these challenging songs were destined for me.)
