Pancham Da had touched Asha Bhosle’s feet, the evergreen love story started with the autograph.
Tezzbuzz Desk – The great personality of Indian music world, Asha Bhosle is no more with us. He breathed his last on 12 April 2026 at the age of 92 at Breach Candy Hospital in Mumbai. Due to his demise, there has been a wave of mourning not only in the country but in the entire world. After the demise of ‘Suron Ki Malika’, many precious stories related to her life are once again becoming fresh in people’s memories.
Unique story of first meeting
On one stage, Asha Bhosle talked about one of the most special relationships of her life, R.D. Had shared a very interesting anecdote of his first meeting with Burman (Pancham Da).
This is from the time when Sachin Dev Burman was composing music for the film “Armaan”. During the recording he told Asha ji, “Asha, meet our son.”
When Pancham Da touched his feet
Asha ji told that there was a thin, shy boy standing in front, who had big glasses on his eyes. He was Pancham Da. He hesitantly moved forward and touched Asha Bhosle’s feet and said, “I am a big fan of yours.”
This moment was as simple as it was special, because later on this meeting was going to become an important chapter in the history of Indian music.
Pancham da was crazy about voice before songs
The interesting thing was that Pancham Da was a big fan not of Asha Bhosle’s film songs but of her Marathi classical music. While living in Kolkata, he often listened to her songs and tried to know the personality behind her voice. In the first meeting, he also took his autograph like a true fan.
Historic couple of music world
Who knew that this shy boy would later revolutionize the world of music. The pair gave a new style to Indian music through films like Teesri Manzil.
In songs like ‘Piya Tu Ab To Aaja’ and ‘Chura Liya Hai Tumne Jo Dil Ko’, Asha Bhosle’s voice and R.D. Burman’s music spread such magic, which is still alive in the hearts of people.
Journey from professional to personal
Over time this musical partnership turned into a beautiful relationship. Both of them not only worked together, but also became life partners. Although Pancham Da had already said goodbye to this world, Asha ji always kept him alive in her memories.
