Alka Yagnik Hit Duets
For avid listeners of the Hindi Film Music Industry, Alka Yagnik is a household name. With many record breaking feats to various awards, this lady is certainly the most followed artist in the country. With a career spanning over 40 something years, she’s still going strong with playback singing in myraid regional languages and judging several music shows.
Known for her sweet, melodious voice with the capacity to strike the higher notes with ease, young Alka started her music journey from her childhood by singing bhajans and participating in radio shows. Later, as she grew up, she tried her hand in the industry when she went to Mumbai and bagged singing opportunities one after the other. From Kishore Kumar the legend to her contemporaries, Alka climbed the ladder of success with much aplomb. With several solo hits, her popularity increased and so did the work that she did.
To encapsulate a journey such as hers in a single article would be a herculean task and the list of songs would be endless.
