Legendary Indian playback singer Asha Bhosle has been admitted to Mumbai’s Breach Candy Hospital on Saturday. Her granddaughter, Zanai Bhosle, shared an update on her health on social media platform X, according to NDTV. Zanai Bhosle said that Asha Bhosle has been admitted to hospital following "extreme exhaustion and a chest infection". "My grandmother, Asha Bhosle due to extreme exhaustion and suffering a chest infection has been admitted to hospital and we request you to value our privacy. Treatment is ongoing and hopefully everything will be well and we shall update you positively," she wrote. Asha Bhosle, known for songs such as Piya Tu Ab To Aaja, Jaiye Aap Kahan Jayenge, Rangeela Re, and Sharara Sharara, will turn 93 on September 8, 2026. Asha Bhosle sang her first film song Chala Chala Nav Bala for the Marathi film Majha Bal in 1943. While she was once pigeonholed into singing peppy dance numbers such as Piya Tu Ab To Aaja and O Haseena Zulfon Wali, the singer later showcased her range with ghazals such as Dil Cheez Kya Hai and the classical Tora Man Darpan Kehlaye.
