Lata Mangeshkar’s demise is not just a great loss for India, but for the entire world. Even in death, the legendary singer has proved that music has no boundaries. From Sri Lanka to Bangladesh – several neighbouring nations have expressed condolences, remembering the veteran singer and Pakistan in no different. Lata’s admirers in Pakistan too are left teary-eyed and grief-struck on this unfortunate day.
Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan took to Twitter and mentioned that Lata’s demise is a great loss for the entire world. “With the death of Lata Mangeshkar the subcontinent has lost one of the truly great singers the world has known. Listening to her songs has given so much pleasure to so many people all over the world,” he wrote. Pakistan’s Information and Broadcasting Minister Fawad Chaudhry took to Twitter and paid tributes to Lata Mangeshkar. He called Lata didi an ‘uncrowned queen’ and wrote, “A legend is no more, #LataMangeshkar was a melodious queen who ruled the world of music for decades she was the uncrowned queen of music her voice shall keep ruling the Hearts of people for all times to come.”

Pakistani singer Ali Zafar had his own emotional and melodious way to remember Lata Mangeshkar – by dedicating her a song. Pakistan’s cricketers including Shoaib Malik and Waqar Younis among others also expressed their sorrow on Lata Mangeshkar’s demise.
It is not shocking that even Pakistan is left numb with Lata Mangeshkar’s demise. It should be noted that the singer enjoyed fan following on both sides of the border also because she began her career before the Indian Independence when India and Pakistan were no different.
Former President of Pakistan, Zia ul Haq had also once expressed his admiration for Lata Mangeshkar saying, “I myself am fond of Lata Mangeshkar but if you want to send her to Pakistan to sing, I’ll say not now because it is not compatible with the current Pakistani spirit.” Therefore, it goes without any hesitation that Lata will be remembered as an ambassador of peace between the two countries.
Here’s how Pakistan is mourning Lata Mangeshkar’s demise:
