A-I generated version of “Ram Ayyenge” in Lata Mangeshkar;s voice

Indian social media, especially Instagram, is inundated with videos edited with AI-generated audio and songs. The trend is so popular that it has not even spared the country’s top leader, Prime Minister Narendra Modi himself. Every day, we get to hear his new ‘release,’ often pieced together by meme pages by generating songs in Modi’s voice using AI tools. 

Additionally, individuals have also harnessed AI to recreate songs in the voices of artistes who have departed from our world.

Lata Mangeshkar, an acclaimed singer cherished by millions, continues to be remembered through her timeless melodies even after her demise. Recently, a captivating clip circulated on X, showcasing a viral recreation of the song ‘Ram Aayenge To Angana Sajaungi’ in the voice of the revered ‘Nightingale of India,’ Late Lata Mangeshkar.

The ‘new song’ by Lata Mangeshkar has gained massive engagement on social media, with some users claiming it brought tears to their eyes.

“I have no clue why this brought tears to my eyes,” commented one user. “Damn!! My eyes are full of tears and my mind is in complete peace after listening to this song in Lata Ji’s voice. Thanks for sharing and thanks to the person who made this,” commented another.
