Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar

Fact Check – लता मंगेशकरांनी डॉ. बाबासाहेब आंबेडकरांवर भीमगीत गाण्यास नकार दिला?

During a lecture organized by the Wamandada Kardak Study Center at Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University, activist Dr. Ravichandra Hadsankar claimed that renowned poet Wamandada Kardak had once personally requested Lata Mangeshkar to sing a Bhimgeet (a song in honor of Ambedkar), but she declined. Later, poets Namdeo Dhasal and Raja Dhale also made attempts, but were unsuccessful. Disappointed, Wamandada is said to have remarked, “Sing for stones, not for humans.”
