In the words of poet Kaifi Azmi, the word ‘ghazal’ has two meanings – one is ghazal and the other Begum Akhtar. The likes of Begum Akhtar are born but rarely. Her name is synonymous with thumri, ghazal & dadra. To connoisseurs of these traditional forms of classical music, Begum Akhtar remains an icon, an embodiment of melody & raag. To give tribute to this legend, Sampurna is screening a special hour-long film on her life and career featuring clips of her live performance and interviews on Saturday, November 22 at 5:00 pm at House No 149, 35th St, off Kh-e-Muslim Phase-VI, DHA.
