In an age where misinformation travels faster than truth, even the most beloved public figures aren’t spared from the harm of viral hoaxes. Legendary singer Asha Bhosle , who has been the voice of countless generations, became the target of a cruel death rumour that swept across social media on July 1, 2025.
The rumour began with a Facebook post shared by a user named Shabana Shaikh, which featured a garlanded image of the veteran singer alongside a false caption announcing her death. The post read: “Famous singer Asha Bhosle passed away – a musical era ends (01 July 2025).” Several similar posts echoed the sentiment, falsely mourning the loss of one of India’s most treasured voices.
As the rumour began gaining traction, some fans were quick to express grief, while others called for verification. Reputed media organisations swiftly conducted fact checks, revealing that the reports were indeed false. Now, Asha Bhosle’s son, Anand Bhosle , has officially put the speculation to rest, telling ETimes in a brief but firm statement: “It’s untrue.”

In fact, Asha Bhosle was recently seen attending a special screening of Rekha’s timeless classic Umrao Jaan, re-released after 44 years. The singer didn’t just attend the event—she took to the stage and captivated the audience with her ever-soulful voice, proving that age has not dimmed her charm or energy.

A Living Legend Still Among Us
With a career that spans over seven decades and a repertoire that includes over 12,000 songs in multiple languages, Asha Bhosle is not just a playback singer—she is an era in herself. From romantic ballads and peppy dance numbers to haunting ghazals, her voice has shaped the soundscape of Indian cinema like no other.
We wish Asha Bhosle continued good health and many more graceful years ahead.
