She has lent her voice to some of the most memorable songs of Bollywood. It has been a while since we heard her voice but all the cinephiles out there still revisit the classics like Baazigar, Hum Hain Rahi Pyar Ke, Vijaypath, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, Kasoor, and Tamasha. And her throwback interview has gone viral on social media.
Do you know Alka Yagnik had a diehard admirer and fan in Osama Bin Laden? The singer spoke about it in an interview.

Netizens react to Alka Yagnik’s interview
One wrote- “Osama is an Alka holic.” Another said, “I’m sure one of those songs would be – Gali Mein Aaj Chand Nikla.”
A third commented- “What rubbish – Is she implying that after killing off Osama Bin Laden , the American soldiers went through his music collection and made a note of it!! Alka Yagnik is very very talented – no denying that – but this clip here doesn’t make sense!!”
When Alka Yagnik said how so many songs were taken away from her
The singer said, “Politics exists in every line of work. A lot of songs were taken away from me. One of my contemporaries played very dirty politics with me. Like I’d rehearse a song only to know that a senior singer had eventually sung it.”
She added, “I’d say koi baat nahin. I didn’t bother who was doing what, saying what… I was a homebody and only too happy to return home after work. I sang from my heart. I was self-analytical, self critical… Even if today a song of mine is playing on radio, and I find something wrong with it, I ask the driver to switch the station.”

The singer continued, “This sudden, major setback has caught me completely unaware. As I attempt to come to terms with it, please keep me in your prayers.”
