AR Rahman and Asha Bhonsle together on Wednesday presented the Lifetime achievement award at the inaugural edition of the Global Indian Music Awards (GIMA) held in Mumbai to Latha Mangeshkar.

The sisters Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhonsle shared a stage after a long time.

Speaking at the event AR Rahman said, “If my father would have been alive today, he would have really felt nice. My mother used to tell me that my father had a picture of Lataji in a white sari.”

“After getting up in the morning, he used to look at that and compose songs. I’m so happy that I got the opportunity of presenting this award to her,” he added.
