As veteran songstress Asha Bhosle turned 83 on Thursday, melody queen Lata Mangeshkar gave blessings and good wishes to her younger sister.

"Namaskar. Aaj meri choti behen Asha Bhosle ka Janamdin hai. Main usko shubh aashirwad deti hun. Ishwar usko hamesha khush rakhe. (Namaskar. Today is my younger sister Asha Bhosle's birthday. I give all my blessings to her. May God always keep her happy.)," tweeted Mangeshkar, 86.

Veteran actor Rishi Kapoor also wished the "Ek pardesi mera dil" crooner on Twitter along with a photograph of himself from the film 'Rafoo Chakkar' in which he even crooned some lines. "Happy Birthday Asha Bhonsle ji. Few know I too have sung in her voice in the film 'Rafoo Chakkar' (1975)," he tweeted.
