Lata Mangeshkar and Kishore Kumar had some of the best musical collaborations to their credit but their first meeting began with a misunderstanding as the Melody Queen thought the singer was "following" her.
In her book "Lata Mangeshkar: In Her Own Voice", documentary maker and author Nasreen Munni Kabeer writes that the singing icon recalled with great amusement the first time she met Kishore Kumar on her way to the Bombay Talkies studio. Mangeshkar said she was working with Khemchand Prakash on 1949`s "Ziddi" when she crossed paths with Kishore Kumar. Mangeshkar had taken the local train to Malad, a suburb in Mumbai, where Bombay Talkies was situated. Kishore Kumar`s elder brother and actor Ashok Kumar was the owner of Bombay Talkies. Kishore Kumar was also in the same compartment, seated close to Mangeshkar and also got down at the Malad Station and was virtually walking behind her till she reached the studio.
