Actor-singer Farhan Akhtar created a heartfelt moment during his recent performance at Lovely Professional University in Jalandhar, where he paid tribute to legendary playback singer Asha Bhosle by performing her iconic track Dum Maro Dum.
The tribute came days after the passing of the veteran singer, who died on April 12 at the age of 92, leaving the music industry and fans in mourning. During the concert, Farhan’s rendition of the classic song struck an emotional chord with the audience, as visuals of Asha Bhosle played in the background. Thousands of students joined in, turning the performance into a collective remembrance of her enduring musical legacy.
Sharing a glimpse of the evening on social media, Farhan reflected on the experience, noting how powerful it was to see young listeners celebrate the timeless voice of Asha Bhosle. Despite minor audio limitations in the recording, the energy of the crowd and the emotion of the moment stood out.
The gesture received a warm response online, including from Asha Bhosle’s granddaughter, Zanai Bhosle, who reacted with affection to the video. Fans also flooded the comments section, praising the tribute as both moving and memorable.
Asha Bhosle, widely regarded as one of the most versatile voices in Indian music, had been admitted to Mumbai’s Breach Candy Hospital shortly before her passing due to health complications. Her death marked the end of an era, with tributes pouring in from across the film and music fraternity.
In the days following her demise, several prominent figures, including Ranveer Singh, Aamir Khan, and Vicky Kaushal, attended her final rites in Mumbai, honoring her immense contribution to Indian cinema and music.
Farhan’s live performance in Jalandhar now joins a growing list of tributes, underscoring the profound impact Asha Bhosle’s music continues to have across generations.
