Alphabetical list of actresses who have lip synced in Asha Bhonsle’s voice- Part IV

(Actresses whose name begin with the letter D)

In the first three episodes of the series, we listed actresses whose names begin with the first three letters of the alphabet and who had lip synced in Asha Bhonsle’s voice in the blog. They we went on to cover a song that was lip synced by another acresses whose name began with the same letter and who had not lip synced in Asha Bhonsle’s voice in the blog.

The exercise of finding a “new” actress whose name begins with a particular letter is being increasingly difficult. The three “new” actresses who made their debuts in the blog (as far as lip syncing in Asha Bhonsle’s voice is concerned) were Anju Mahendru, Bhanupriya and Chandrakala.

In this episode, we arrive at the letter D. There are only five actresses who have lip synced in Asha Bhonsle’s voice in the blog.

Suman Kalyanpur the ‘Sureelee Suman’ of Hindi Film Music, and many regional languages music passed away on 31st May 2026. She was born on 28th January 1937. The news of her passing away came as a shock to music lovers. I got this news first on a WhatsApp group which I did not want to believe. When I checked on internet there was no such news. It was only on the next day that several sources carried this news and this bad news was confirmed.

As a music lover I had been listening to the voice of Suman Kalyanpur from early childhood. After coming into contact with this blog, I got the opportunity to share many of her songs and I enjoyed listening to these songs in the process of preparing their writeups.

#The Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #

YEAR 1983-1

Recently our team member Peevesie’s Mom jee had shared a song from the movie ‘Naukar Biwi Ka’, which is a movie from the year 1983.

We know that this year -1983-was a special year from the point of view of Indian cricket lovers. It was in this year that the unfancied Indian Cricket Team unexpectedly won the Cricket World Cup.

As far as movies were concerned, 1983 was the year of comeback of Rajesh Khanna.

On the personal front, it was a very important year for me as a Cricket fan as well as a student. 1983 was the most important year of my student life. I had appeared and successfully 😊 cleared my Board Exams of standard Xth.
