People know the queen of Indipop Asha Bhosle for her voice and songs. Every song of hers has been amazing. Along with her professional life Asha Bhosles personal life was also in the news. Her married life was opposite to the success she had in her career. Most people know that Asha Bhosle married R.D. Burman but let us tell you that he was her second husband. Asha Bhosle had two marriages. In her first marriage she eloped and married her sister Lata Mangeshkars secretary Ganpatrao Bhosle. Due to this her family was very upset. Yes! Very few people know that Asha Bhosle married 31-year-old Ganpatrao who was Lata Mangeshkars secretary at 16. In 1949 both of them eloped and got married. Lata Mangeshkar was very sad about this and she broke off relations with her younger sister. When Asha Bhosle became the mother of her first child the Mangeshkar family adopted her but Ganpatrao did not like this. He did not want Asha Bhosle to have any relationship with his family especially Lata Mangeshkar. It is said that Ganpatrao started harassing Asha for money and her husband also stopped her from meeting Lata. There were fights between the two and he even started beating Asha. Asha Bhosle and Ganpatrao have three children. When she was about to become a mother for the third time Ganpatrao asked her to leave the house. Both of them got separated this year. This was a sad time for Asha but her singing career took a new turn. In an interview with Kavita Chhibber Asha had said “I got married at a very young age to a man 20 years older than me. It was a love marriage and Lata didi did not talk to me for a long time. She did not approve of this relationship. The family was very conservative and they could not accept a singing star as a daughter-in-law.” Asha also talked about the ill treatment she faced. She said “I was just ill-treated and when I was about to give birth to my youngest son Anand I was asked to leave the house and I went back to my mother and sisters. I dont blame anyone and I dont have any ill thoughts about anyone. I feel that if I hadnt met Mr Bhosle I wouldnt have had these three lovely children and my life wouldnt have been perfect.” Let us tell you that Asha Bhosle and R.D. Burman used to meet often for work. Both of them started liking each others company because Asha was 6 years older than Burman so Burmans family was against it. But going against them both of them got married in 1980 and 14 years later R.D. Burman who is known as Pancham Da passed away.
