Akhtari
Bai Faizabadi (7 October 1914 – 30 October 1974), also known as Begum Akhtar
(Mustri Bai), was an Indian actress and singer. Dubbed
"Mallika-e-Ghazal" (Queen of Ghazals), she is regarded as one of
the greatest singers of ghazal, dadra, and thumri genres of Hindustani
classical music. Akhtari
Bai Faizabadi was born on 7 October 1914 to Asghar Hussain, a lawyer and his
second wife Mushtari.[3] He subsequently disowned her and his twin daughters
Zohra and Bibbi (Akhtar).Akhtar received the Sangeet Natak Akademi Award for
vocal music, and was awarded Padma Shri and later, Padma Bhushan,
posthumously by the government of India.Akhtar was barely seven when she was
captivated by the music of Chandra Bai, an artist attached to a touring
theatre group. However at her uncle's insistence she was sent to train under
Ustad Imdad Khan, the great sarangi exponent from Patna, and later under Ata
Mohammed Khan of Patiala. Later, she travelled to Calcutta with her mother
and learnt music from classical stalwarts like Mohammad Khan, Abdul Waheed
Khan of Lahore, and finally she became the disciple of Ustad Jhande Khan. Her
first public performance was at the age of fifteen. The famous poet Sarojini
Naidu appreciated her singing during a concert which was organised in the aid
of victims of the 1934 Nepal–Bihar earthquake. This encouraged her to
continue singing ghazals with more enthusiasm. She cut her first disc for the
Megaphone Record Company, at that time. A number of gramophone records were
released carrying her ghazals, dadras, thumris, etc. She was amongst the
early female singers to give public concert, and break away from singing in
mehfils or private gatherings, and in time came to be known as
Mallika-e-Ghazal (Queen of Ghazal). |
