Barely a few weeks after the Grammy nomination for her collabration with Kronos Quartet, Asha Bhosle is all set to pay her better-half another hefty homage.

This time it's on local soil and meant to commemorate RD's death anniversary on 4 Jan.

"It's an album entitled Real RD. It features 21 of R.D. Burman's choicest number—mostly rendered by Ashaji , with a few duets where Sudesh Bhosle will accompany her," reveals a source from Sa Re Ga Ma, the oldest music company in India which has the copyrights for most of Asha B's and RDB's movie soundtracks.

A few months ago Sa Re Ga Ma had gone all-out to promote the songstress' non-film album Asha which contained her version of all-time Ghazal classics.

What makes Real RD really special is that fact that Asha will be re-interpreting the tracks, rendering the songs all over again to suit the techno-advancements in the new millennium.

Earlier she had done new versions of RD's tracks some years ago in a well-received album called RD & I.

"Ashaji is going all-out to ensure that the sounds heard in this new album are just right. She has handpicked numbers that are both popular and unknown. There's so much of RD that needs to be discovered still. We're glad she's taking personal interest in further advancing the name of the single biggest musical genius of Hindi cinema," says the Sa Re Ga Ma source.

The album to be released on 4 Jan, will be followed by a series of promotional concerts by Asha all over the world.

Looks like the man who died almost a pauper has found never-ending life in death.
