Bhosle’s death left the entire nation heartbroken. The legendary singer died due to multiple organ failure on April 12, 2026. Her cremation is being held at Dadar’s Shivaji Park. Asha Tai will be cremated with full state honours. While many celebrities arrived at the venue to pay their last respects to the late singer, Rakhi Sawant went to Mumbai airport and interacted with paps. She claimed that Asha Bhosle sang her last song for her. Well, the statement is indeed leaving all the netizens in shock. But it is not true. Asha Ji sang her last song in the ninth album by Gorillaz, The Mountain.
Truth About Asha Bhosle’s Last Song
Asha Bhosle’s last song was for a British group on an experimental India-inspired track. She recorded it just weeks before her death. She had also shared a post on Instagram in which her voice was heard for the last time in a new song, The Shadowy Light, from the album The Mountain (Parvat). In the song, Gruff Rhys, flautist Ajay Prasanna, sarod maestros Amaan and Ayaan Ali Bangash blended Indian classical elements with experimental British alt-pop. The
album also features collaborations with sitar virtuoso Anoushka Shankar and vocalist Asha Puthli.
At the time of The Shadowy Light, Asha Bhosle had said that the song holds ‘deep meaning’ for her. In her social media post, she mentioned that she understood the meaning of life and what she was supposed to do on earth. Well, the song is all about her final journey.
It means Rakhi Sawant’s claims were absolutely false, as Asha Bhosle’s last song was not for her. It indeed has an emotional connect, and fans of Asha Tai would definitely get teary-eyed after hearing her voice for the last time.
