A few days ago,
Hridaynath Mangeshkar was admitted to a hospital. The 84-year-old musician, younger brother of Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhosle and
Usha Mangeshkar is now back home.
At the inaugural Lata Deenanath
Mangeshkar
Award, his son Adinath who addressed the gathering had said it was his father who would always deliver the welcome address and give information about the trust, but wasn’t able to do it this year. Adinath however had not divulged the exact cause of Hridaynath Mangeshkar's hospitalisation.
Prime Minister
Narendra Modi, who is the first recipient of the Lata Deenanath
Mangeshkar Puraskar
, was also present at the event and wished Hridaynath Mangeshkar a speedy recovery at the start of his address.
A source close to the family tells ETimes, "Hridaynath ji is now much better. There is no cause of worry."
The Mangeshkars have been through a lot in the past few months- Lata Mangeshkar's demise, Asha Bhosle's son falling down in Dubai and being rushed to a hospital, and then Hridaynath Mangeshkar's indisposition.
