Ms. Lalitha
Lalitha was born in a musical family in Bombay. She spent her youth in this busy city
and took part in many competitions, in which she won first place. She
auditioned for and was selected by All-India Radio (AIR), at the first
attempt, and she was hired as a recording light music artist for AIR.
Lalitha came to the US in 1986 and started her debut in this country as a
guest singer for other groups. In this process, she came into contact with
many noted musicians and decided to start her own troupe. In this way, "Sangeet"
was born in 1992, for the entertainment pleasure of Indians living in
America. In 1997, Lalitha auditioned for the great maestro pundit Ravi
Shankarji and she was selected as a soloist to sing his composition at the
Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., in honor of India's 50th anniversary
of independence.
With Lalitha's versatile talent, she can make her voice sound like any of the
great singers, whether they be the legendary Lataji, Ashaji, or Geeta
Duttji, or the present-day singers such as Alka Yagnik, Kavita, and so on.
The power in her voice when she songs punchy numbers like Piya Tu, Duniya
Mein, or the latest Bole Chudiyan, and Taal, will make you want to dance
all night, while the emotions she pours into songs like Raina Beeti Jaye
and Lo Agayi Unki Yaad will move you to tears, and the skill with which
she sings tough classical songs like Dil Cheez Kya Hai and Bol Re Papihara
will leave you amazed.
Lalitha's 15 years of experience in this field can be clearly seen when
she leads the groups in all her preformances. The musical lists she
performs range from good old melodies to the present peppy songs, catering
to audiences of all walks of life.
