Actor Ayushmann Khurrana on Wednesday paid a musical tribute to legendary singer Asha Bhosle, who breathed her last on April 12 at the age of 92.

Ayushmann dropped a video in which he could be seen crooning a lesser known Punjabi song 'Das Meriya Dilwarave' sung by Asha Bhosle.

"This is one of my favourite lesser known Punjabi gem by Asha ji Grew up on her voice. And it will live on, always," he captioned the post.

Ayushmann's unplugged version of Asha Bhosle's 'Das Meriya Dilwarave' garnered loads of praise from the fans.

"Soulful, just what I needed," a netizen commented,

"How beautiful," another one wrote.

Asha Bhosle, one of India's most loved voices, passed away on April 12 at the age of 92 due to multiple organ failure. She was cremated with full state honours at Shivaji Park Crematorium in Mumbai on Monday. Many stars, including Ranveer Singh, Vicky Kaushal and Aamir Khan attended the funeral.

Born to classical singer and theatre actor Pandit Deenanath Mangeshkar, she began her musical journey at a young age and went on to build an unparalleled legacy. Her collaborations with composer RD Burman, whom she later married, remain among the most celebrated in Indian cinema. Her iconic hits include Piya Tu Ab To Aaja and the rebellious Dum Maro Dum.

Just listened to the original after seeing this. What a hidden gem! Asha Tai's range was unbelievable – from classical to cabaret to folk Punjabi. Ayushmann did a decent job, but there's only one Asha Bhosle. A true legend is gone.

Respect for Ayushmann for picking a lesser-known song. Everyone talks about her Bollywood hits, but her contribution to regional music is massive. My nani used to hum this Punjabi song while cooking. Brought back so many memories.

As an NRI, this hits hard. Asha Bhosle's voice was a bridge to home. Seeing this tribute from a contemporary actor is touching. It shows her influence transcends generations. Beautiful gesture.

While the tribute is nice, I wish more mainstream media would focus on her incredible technical prowess and decades of work, not just which celebrity attended the funeral. Her duets with Kishore Kumar are timeless. That's the real tribute - keeping her music alive.

The Mangeshkar family has given so much to Indian music. Lata ji, Asha ji... an era is truly ending. Ayushmann's cover is sincere. But nothing beats the original magic. Piya Tu Ab To Aaja will forever be iconic! ❤️
