Ranu Mondal is living the life of a star now but things were not the same before. Talking about her struggles Ranu was quoted as saying, “I wasn’t born on a footpath. I belonged to a well-to-do family but it was my destiny. I got separated from my parents when I was just six months old. We had a house but you know you need people to maintain it. There were so many days of loneliness. I struggled a lot but always believed in God. I used to sing according to situations. It wasn’t to get singing opportunities, just for the love of singing. I used to learn songs from Lata Mangeshkar. She didn’t teach me but I learnt from the radio and cassettes”.
