Alka Yagnik has never been able to handle the fact that all things pass with time. Her disdain for the competition is the very reason she's been side-stepped. You can't dismiss evolution or competition, you have to accept it as a reality and adapt accordingly. Or else, you're left talking about the 'good old days'. Like she is.

I feel like her voice suited the actresses in 90s but now her voice is a bit too mature for the actresses and they are looking for more girlish voices?

I agree her voice sounds mature but then Lata and Asha sang for actresses even in their 70s.

Lata hardly sang in the naughties and Asha sang for Urmila or Shamita but that again was way back... The style was different then but it has drastically changed now.. Don't think except very specific songs, Alka's voice will suit the actresses' today 😕

Alka was lucky though. She found success in her 20s. Her male contemporaries Udit Narayan, Kumar Sanu and Abhijeet struggled for a decade or more before getting their big breaks.

Yeah, her voice wouldn't work with the compositions that music directors come up with nowadays.

Yeah the style is so different now... And nice, I didn't know she was an early riser. Always liked her songs though :)

I disagree..she will suit the songs even today
She sang Agar Tum Saath Ho in Tamasha...loved it
