Burman's work timeless and that it has been the musical glue in her family her whole life.

It came out the year I was born and inspired a love of singing in me from the very start."Rapper Ikka said Burman's music had the depth that cannot be expressed in words. "My favourite song of R.D. Burman is 'Meri bheegi bheegi' which was sung by Kishore Kumar."( With inputs from IANS )
