Lata Mangeshkar had last sung with music directors Ram-Laxman 14 years back for ‘Hum Aapke Hain Kaun’.
Now she’s teaming up with them again for Santosh Kumar Jain’s debut film, ‘The Lifestyle in Generation Next’.
Even before the super success of ‘Hum Aapke Hai Kaun’, they have worked together on movies like ‘Woh Jo Hasina’, ‘When Love Calls’, ‘Saatwan Aasman’, and ‘Saanch Ko Aanch Nahi’.
Lata’s last biggest hit was ‘Kitne ajeeb rishtey’ from Bhandarkar’s ‘Page 3′.
