Lata Mangeshkar painting features as the Limca Book of Records

Lata Mangeshkar, India’s nightingale, composed many classic tunes. Three years have passed since the singer departed for paradise on February 6. Ramkripal Namdev, an artist from Jabalpur, celebrated Lata Mangeshkar’s illustrious journey by painting a variety of moments from her life.
He assembled about 1436 pictures of the singer to make a stunning painting. Additionally, this picture is listed in the Limca Book of Records. Furthermore, the picture has been included in both the India Book of Records and the Asia Book.
According to Ramkripal Namdev, he used to enjoy Lata Mangeshkar’s music and thought her voice was so lovely that it inspired him to paint her.
Additionally, Ramkripal Namdev stated that he brought one of his paintings to Lata Mangeshkar. He was unable to meet the singer, but he used her secretary to send her his painting. Lata Mangeshkar was persuaded by the artist that signing the painting would be a very kind gesture, but she declined, claiming that the artwork was so exquisite that signing it would take away from its beauty. Afterwards, the singer eventually signed the painting after Ramkripal Namdev gave it to him.
Despite being a novice painter, Ramkripal Namdev created the painting. He called it life’s greatest accomplishment. The artist added that Lata Mangeshkar’s paintings have been exhibited in a number of the nation’s largest cities as part of their “Chitra Latika” series. These include the Ravi Shankar Rawal Art Bhavan in Ahmedabad, the Hiralal Rai Art Vivika in Jabalpur, the Lalit Kala Akademi in Delhi, the Jamini Roy Art Gallery in Kolkata, the Jahangir Art Gallery in Mumbai, and the Pu L Deshpande Art Gallery.
The Indian playback singer and sporadic music composer Lata Mangeshkar (born Hema Mangeshkar; 28 September 1929 – 6 February 2022) was born. She is regarded as one of the Indian subcontinent’s greatest and most significant vocalists. Over the course of an eight-decade career, she earned honorific names like “Queen of Melody,” “Nightingale of India,” and “Voice of the Millennium” for her contributions to the Indian music business.
Mostly in Hindi, Bengali, and Marathi, Mangeshkar recorded songs in more than 36 Indian languages as well as a few international languages. Beginning her career in 1942, Lata Mangeshkar recorded up to 50,000 songs in 14 different languages during the course of her career. She achieved the Guinness World Record by recording 30,000 songs in the 1960s.
