Amitabh Bachchan attended the prestigious Lata Deenanath Mangeshkar Award with his son Abhishek Bachchan on April 24. The Mangeshkar family had announced an award for the megastar on April 17th.

Lata's early exposure to such ideas built in her deep respect for social reform and unity. The bond between the Mangeshkar family and Veer Savarkar extended primarily into the realm of music.
