Once the queen of playback, Alka Yagnik provided us with numerous hits during the 90s and early 2000s. She was the one who made us recollect the lyrics, music, and immense influence of Bollywood tracks. Songs back then had an intense meaning to them and hence had an enduring effect on music devotees. Each of her three-decade-long career songs took us to diverse realms of feelings. It’s her mellifluous voice that kept us fond of her work. Since she started out in this industry, Alka Yagnik has been hitting each note like a divinity. Her melodic artistry can transform our emotions through harmonies and articulate the right emotion at precisely the right time.
Alka Yagnik is a renowned singer, who had a superb beginning to her career with one of the most popular songs in the 80s, Payal Ki Jhankaar. However, her true breakthrough was Ek Do Teen which earned her worldwide recognition. She later went on to sing in more than 20 languages and recorded some of the most iconic Hindi movie songs like Ae Mere Humsafar and Hum Tum. After all these years, her music is still loved and played at weddings or recreated as Instagram Reels. Alka Yagnik has truly made a mark on the musical landscape and so, on her birthday, we’d like to present some of her timeless melodies that we find ourselves tapping along to.
