Lata Mangeshkar, the veteran playback singer, had formal training in music from her father. Her father ran a theater company in Mumbai, where she began to learn music with her father's grudging approval, and with whom she also sang a song. As her father was a conservative man, film music was not appreciated at her home. After the theater company was auctioned, her father died, and she assumed the financial responsibility by becoming an actress, first in Marathi and later in Hindi cinema, but in acting, she did not click. Later she surprised everyone with one of her solo number (Aayega Aanewaala) from the movie Mahal released in 1949. The song was screened on Madhubala. Finally, Lata became a singing star overnight.

Fortunately, her training in classical music and her disciplined voice started to fetch her playback assignments; she became the nightingale of India.
