Akhtari Bai Faizabadi or Begum Akhtar as she was named after her marriage to barrister Ishtiaq Ahmed Abbasi-who prohibited her from singing..[what a waste]
She received the Sangeet Natak Academy Award for vocal music, and was awarded Padma Shri and Padma Bhushan (posthumously) by the Govt. of India .
Born on October 7, 1914–and passed away on October 30, 1974,
A truly sad character-who suffered immensely in life-first by the abandonement
What these legend sang was not merely reciting words, nor their classic classical style but the transforming feelings in their singing. That crates immortality in their music.
Thanks for such a beautiful ghazal.She deserved more than what she got from this hypocrasy based society.Thanks once again.

of her father-then her strict husband.
She was natural.
