The Mangeshkars honour one of their own

The Family salutes the Legend.

The Master Deenanath Mangeshkar Smruti Pratishthan Awards were held at the Shri Shanmukhananda Hall, Sion, north central Mumbai.

Several artistes were honoured on the occasion of Master Deenanath's 76th death anniversary.

Master Deenanath was, of course, the father of the legendary Mangeshkar sisters who have delighted hundreds of millions of people worldwide with their musical magic.

Asha Bhosle lights the lamp. The legend was awarded the Master Deenanath Mangeshkar Lifetime Award.

Her eldest sister Lata Mangeshkar -- Ashatai's 'Didi' -- was, unfortunately, not present on the occasion.
