New Delhi, April 12 -- Asha Bhosle, India's beloved singing icon and the sister of late Lata Mangeshkar, passed away at 92 on Sunday.

"She passed way due to multi organ failure a few minutes ago," Dr Pratit Samdani, who was treating her, told PTI.

Bhosle was admitted to Breach Candy hospital here on Saturday evening: while initial reports suggested that she had suffered a cardiac arrest, her granddaughter Zanai Bhosle later clarified that the 92-year-old had been admitted due to extreme exhaustion and a chest infection.

As news of her passing spread, tributes poured in from around the country.

"No words can convey the loss I feel at Asha Bhosle ji's demise. Unki surily awaaz hamesha hamesha ke liye amar rahegi. Om Shanti," wrote Bolly...
