Urmila Matondkar is gliding over the moon. In a public function in Versova on Thursday songstress Asha Bhosle not only spoke in the most glowing terms about the actress' singing abilities she also gave her a gift. Says Urmila, "Everything that evening was a blur. I was rendered speechless by Ashaji's generosity. She not only spoke in glowing terms about me she also presented me this huge Saraswati idol. She seems to think I'm not only a good actress but also an able singer. I can't believe it! She has advised me to cut my own album."

Urmila is overwhelmed, "Receiving an idol from Ashaji was like a Goddess gifting me a goddess. I never knew that one song with Ashaji could trigger off such a chain of positive responses. To be able to stand next to her and sing was in itself a huge honour.
