THE INAUGURAL edition of the Chevrolet Global Indian Music Awards (GIMA) powered by Micromax conferred upon Lata Mangeshkar the Lifetime Achievement Award for her stellar achievements in the field of music. The nightingale of the Indian music industry, Lata Mangeshkar has inspired generations of aspiring singers with her unstinting passion for music, continuing to be a guiding light for many budding singers even today.

GIMA, which has been conceptualised by India’s leading event management company, Wizcraft Entertainment, has struck a coup of sorts by having both of India’s musical sisters associated with the first ever awards for the Indian music industry. Asha Bhosale was recently announced as the Goodwill Ambassador for the awards, whilst sister Lata was the recipient of the first Lifetime Achievement Award which was bestowed upon her at a glittering awards function in Mumbai on 10th November 2010.

In a career spanning six and a half decades, Lata Mangeshkar has won several prestigious awards and honours including the Padma Bhushan (1969), Padma Vibhushan (1999) and Dada Saheb Phalke Award (1989), among several others. She is the second vocalist ever to have received the Bharat Ratna, India’s highest civilian honour. Mangeshkar was also featured in the Guinness Book of World Records from 1974 to 1991 for having made the most recordings in the world.

An initiative of Wizcraft International Entertainment, Chevrolet GIMA has been instituted with the support of IMI, T-Series, MCAI and other key constituents of the music industry.
