00:30The girl with whom I am present today is Alishma and she is only 14 years old.
00:35At the age of 14, she sings songs in the same voice as Lata ji.

00:53And she sings songs in such a great style in Lata ji's voice that the listeners are stunned.
01:01Tell me what is your age and which class are you studying?
01:04I am 14 years old and I am studying in 9th standard.
01:08Tell me how long has it been since you started singing?
01:12I have been singing since the age of 6-7 years.
01:17At the age of 6-7 years, you decided to sing.
01:21Did anyone tell you to sing or was it your personal interest?
01:26No, it was my personal interest and my father also sings.
01:31By profession, he is a lawyer, but he is a fan of singing.
01:34At the age of 5-6 years, you started singing.
01:38Of course, there is one thing at home.
01:41Who is training you to practice singing?
01:45You said that your father also used to sing, but he retired.
01:49Who makes you practice?
01:51Is your father teaching you how to sing?
01:54Yes, I am learning from my father.
01:57I have not started learning professionally from any teacher.
02:00But if in the future I feel that I should learn from a teacher, then I will definitely learn.
02:06Before you know how she sings, who are you listening to and who are you watching?
02:13We listen to some songs from Alishpa in the voice of Lata ji.
02:18Alishpa, you have to sing your favorite songs of Lata ji so that our viewers know that you can sing like her.
02:36Radha kishan the kabhi naam hamaare
02:43Phir woh muraliya phir woh payaliya
02:49Phir wohi sangeet re
02:54Aaja tujhko pukaare mer jeet re
03:00Very good, Alishpa.
03:02Believe me, I closed my eyes for a moment.
03:05Lata ji has left this world, but it felt like Lata ji was sitting in front of me and I was listening to her.
03:11Tell me, who told you for the first time that your voice resembles Lata ji?
03:16When I was 12-13 years old, I started singing in my friends and family.
03:23Then my family and relatives told me that my voice resembles Lata ji.
03:29So I thought maybe there is a resemblance.
03:34How did you feel when your relatives and friends told you that your voice resembles Lata ji?
03:42Did you sing again and check when she left alone?
03:46Yes, because Lata ji is such a legendary singer and I got such a big compliment, I was very happy.
03:53I have been a big fan of Lata ji from the beginning.
03:56Tell me, when you started singing from your family, how did you start singing at your relatives' weddings?
04:17I have never sung on drums.
04:20I have never sung on drums, but I used to sing at small gatherings and birthday parties.
04:30Tell me, you have taken on such a big responsibility that you are now singing at their weddings.
04:36How do you manage all these things?
04:38First I manage the school and then after school, how tough the routines are.
04:45But I still manage because singing is my hobby and my passion.
04:49So I take out time for it.
04:51Alishpa, tell me that in your school, there will be gatherings and functions.
04:55So for the performance, everyone will be looking at you, that Alishpa is sitting, she will perform.
05:00Yes, because my teachers also like my voice a lot.
05:04Do your teachers call you and tell you to sing a song of Lata ji?
05:11Sometimes I send them a message on WhatsApp.
05:16Do they also ask you to sing a song on WhatsApp?
05:19Yes, of course.
05:20Do they also ask you to sing a song on WhatsApp?
05:21Yes, of course.
05:22Especially my class teacher, Ms. Nadia, she is very supportive and she listens to my songs.
05:29Videos of Alishpa's singing in Lata ji's voice are very viral these days.
05:34And Alishpa is also giving interviews on different channels day by day.
05:40So in the comments box, many people say that maybe they have a software or they press a button and get such a voice.
05:49But I want to clear you that there is nothing like that.
05:53I am sitting in front of you and this is our mic.
05:56I will do it in front of her and she will sing in her natural voice.
05:59Alishpa, let's listen to you again.
06:01You sing in this mic in your natural voice.
06:26What is your future plan?
06:30Do you want to make singing your profession along with your studies?
06:35Yes, I have a CSIS plan for my studies in the future.
06:39And as far as singing is concerned, I have decided to continue singing professionally.
06:45And if I get an opportunity as a playback singer, I would like to avail it and continue it professionally.
06:57If you get a chance to sing with a singer in the future, tell me the name of a singer.
07:04I would like to sing with him.
07:07I would like to sing with Sir Atif Atlam. I like his voice very much.
07:11Alishpa, how many siblings do you have?
07:13You are the youngest and the eldest.
07:15What is your rank?
07:16Do you train your siblings?
07:19Are you transferring your talent to them?
07:22Do you want them to be able to copy a singer like you?
07:26I have a younger sister and I am the eldest.
07:30She also likes to sing.
07:34I want her to be able to sing and learn.
07:38As far as copying a singer is concerned, I don't copy Lata ji.
07:43If I sing any song, I copy Lata ji's voice.
07:48If I sing Shreya Khushal ji's or Noor Jehan madam's song, I get the same voice.
07:53What other hobbies do you have?
07:58I like blogging and traveling.
08:03I also like dressing.
08:06I like to travel and explore different places.
08:11This was 14-year-old Alishpa.

08:18She is the pride of our country.
08:21We hope that she will fulfill her dream in the future.
