'''Aarti Mukherjee''' (born 18 July 1945), also known as '''Aarti Mukherji''' or '''Arati Mukhopadhyay''', is an Indian [[playback singer]] who has sung in [[Hindi film]]s such as ''[[Geet Gata Chal]]'' (1975), ''[[Tapasya (1976 film)|Tapasya]]'' (1976), ''Manokamana'' and ''[[Masoom (1983 film)|Masoom]]'' (1983).

==Early life==
Mukherjee was born in West Bengal, [[India]]. Her Bengali family was musical with a rich, cultural and musical heritage. She was introduced to music by her mother. She studied under Shri Susheel Banerjee, Ustaad Mohammed Sagiruddin Khan, Pandit Chinmoy Lahiri, Pandit Laxman Prasad Jaipurwale and Pandit Ramesh Nadkarni.

==Career==
In [[Bangladesh|Bangla]] TV show ''Dadagiri'' she reflected on her early days. She stated that she sang on the ''All India Music Talent Programme'' in 1955 at age 14 or 15. She was trained in [[Indian Classical Music]] from a young age. She sang primarily for Bengali films. She won the music contest, "Metro-Murphy Contest" whose judges were music directors including [[Anil Biswas (composer)|Anil Biswas]], [[Naushad]], [[Vasant Desai]] and [[C. Ramchandra]]. This enabled her career as a playback singer.<ref>{{cite news |title= Full of patriotic fervour Solo magic|url=http://www.hindu.com/fr/2008/10/03/stories/2008100350440100.htm |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140605123512/http://www.hindu.com/fr/2008/10/03/stories/2008100350440100.htm |url-status=dead |archive-date=5 June 2014 |date=3 October 2008 |work= [[The Hindu]]|accessdate=28 May 2013}}</ref> She got her first break in 1958 Hindi film ''Sahara'', but the music of that film was limited.

After a string of flops like ''A Girlfriend'', she decided to open herself to Bengali films. She sang for the first time in a Bengali film called ''Kanya'' in 1962. Her versatility and voice infatuated audiences so much that they started losing affection for erstwhile leading singer [[Sandhya Mukherjee]] and Pratima Banerjee . In the late 1960s, her voice was used as the on-screen voice of leading actress [[Suchitra Sen]].

In 1966, she sang in the film ''Golpo Holeo Sotyi,'' which earned her [[BFJA Award]] for Best Female Playback Singer. In 1976, she won again for ''Chhutir Phande''. She lent her voice for leading actresses of the late sixties till eighties, such as Madhabi Mukherji, [[Sharmila Tagore]], [[Aparna Sen]], Debashri Roy and [[Tanuja]]. She, along with [[Asha Bhosle]], took the leading spot in the 1970s.

She sang 'Bacche ho tum Khel khilone' and in a duet with [[Kishore Kumar]] titled 'Do panchi do tinke'. She is said to have sung 15,000 songs in Bengali as well as Hindi songs. She continued success in the 1970s that inspired her to return to [[Bollywood]]. In 1983 R. D. Burman, who was the mentor of Bengali singers [[Kumar Sanu]], [[Abhijeet Bhattacharya|Abhijeet]] and [[Andrew Kishore]], gave her "Do Naina Aur Ek Kahani" in the film [[Masoom (1983 film)|''Masoom'']] voicing Shabana Azmi. The song was a chartbuster and is still sung. It earned her the Filmfare award for best female playback singer in 1983. Her popular repertoire includes 'Radha Banshi Chara Janena', 'Ek Boishakhe Dekha Holo Dujonar', 'Ei Mon Jochonay Ongo Bhijiye', 'Ja Ja Behaya Pakhi Jana', 'Tokhon Tomar Ekush Bochor Bodhoy.' She also has several non-film songs to her credit. She lent her voice to several Hindi compositions as well.

In the year 1957, while still in school, she bagged the first prize in the All-India Murphy Metro Music contest held in Mumbai, having been adjudged the best singer by leading music directors of that time such as Anil Biswas, Naushad Ali, Vasant Desai, C. Ramchandra, and Madan Mohan.

Arati commenced her musical journey in films with Bengali film ''Subarna Rekha'' and Hindi film ''Angulimaal'' and has, since then, sung thousands of songs in Bengali, [[Odia language|Oriya]], [[Meitei language|Manipuri]], [[Assamese language|Assamese]], [[Hindi]], [[Gujarati language|Gujarati]], [[Marathi language|Marathi]] and other languages.

Apart from films, Arati has engaged audiences with albums and live performances on television and stage of Rabindra Sangeet and Nazrul Geeti. Her versatility can be seen in diverse genres of music like [[Thumri]], [[Bhajan]], Tappa, [[Tarana]], and [[Ghazal]]. She performed extensively in India and throughout the world.
