Deenanath Mangeshkar (29 December 1900 – 24 April 1942) was a well-known Marathi theatre actor, a renowned Natya Sangeet musician and a Hindustani classical vocalist. He is also the father of well-known singers Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhosle, and Usha Mangeshkar as well as composers Hridayanath Mangeshkar and Meena Khadikar. ==Background== Deenanath Mangeshkar, popularly known as Dina, was born at Mangeshi, Goa on 29 December 1900. His father, Ganesh Bhatt Abhisheki, was a Karhade Brahmin who served as priest at the famous Mangueshi Temple in Goa. The original surname of his family was "Hardikar," but because the family had the traditional privilege of performing the ''Abhishekam'' ceremony for the Shiva lingam of the Mangueshi Temple, they came to be known by the surname "Abhisheki." However, Deenanath did not inherit either of the two surnames of his father's family. This is because his mother Yesubai (sometimes referred to as Yesubai Rane) belonged to the Devadasi community of Goa,〔 which is now known as Gomantak Maratha Samaj. Since the family lived in Mangeshi village in Goa, and Deenanath was born there, he was given the surname "Mangeshkar," which means "of Mangesh." Incidentally, Mangesh is the name of the deity worshipped in the Mangueshi Temple. As a ''Devadasi,'' Yesubai often sang and danced at temple events and festivals. She is said to have had and had an erring genius for music. Dinanath's father surname was ''Hardikar'' whose family bathed(see:Abhishekam) the Linga of lord Shiva at Mangueshi temple, thus they were known as ''Abhisheki''s. Dinanath adopted the surname ''Mangeshkar'' which means ''from the village of Mangeshi'' in Marathi. The father of the late Jitendra Abhisheki was Deenanath's half-brother. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Deenanath Mangeshkar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
