The maestro is in fact on a mission to help Asha Bhonsle top the illustrious list of top 5 most iconic musicians of the world from the last 50 years, in a poll conducted by CNN.
CNN’s new arts and culture show "icon," in conjunction with music magazine "Songlines," has shortlisted 20 globally renowned musicians from the past 50 years. Of the 20 nominations, Asha Bhonsle is the only Indian artist competing with the likes of Michael Jackson, Madonna, Bob Marley, The Beatles to name a few.Sachin Tendulkar has pasted the link of the poll on his profile page of a microblogging site which will enable Asha’s global fans and Sachin’s above 5 Lakh followers to vote for her.
Other than spreading the word about Asha’s billionth achievement, Sachin has even expressed his admiration for her by saying, “Wonderful to know that Asha Bhonsle's name has figured in the all time top 20 music icons in the world of the last 50years. She is the only Indian to figure in this list. Let's vote to make her the no 1 artist in the world.”
Asha too obliged her fan Sachin as she responded, “Thank you so much Sachin...I admire you a lot. It feels great to be in list of 20 icons...more then that feel so good for my country.”
Sachin Tendulkar is undoubtedly the number one batsman in the world and the maestro now intends to see Asha too achieve the position she ideally deserves in the world of music.
