A Twitter user commented on the Recording Academy's theme of diversity and inclusion. "Both the Oscars and Grammy awards claim to promote diversity but surprisingly none of them bothered to showcase Lata Mangeshkar in their section to remember artists who are no longer with us. #GRAMMYs #Oscars #LataMangeshkar," she wrote. Another Twitter user emphasised Mangeshkar's contribution to the music industry, writing, "Wow Grammys didn't even to bother mentioning #LataMangeshkar.
