Perspective
Asha Bhosle has won seven Filmfare Awards for Best Female Playback Singer out of 18 nominations. She won her first two awards in 1967 and 1968, when her elder sister Lata Mangeshkar still used to accept the award (Lata Mangeshkar asked not to be considered for the award nominations after 1969 to promote new talent.) After receiving the award in 1979, Asha Bhosle emulated her sister and requested that her name not be considered for the nominations hereafter. Despite this, she is the most frequent winner of this award to date, tying with Alka Yagnik. She was later given a Special Award for Rangeela Lifetime Achievement Award in 2001.[1]
