"Akhtari: The Life and Music of Begum Akhtar" by Yatindra Mishra and Maneesha Taneja is a profound and moving tribute to Akhtaribai Faizabadi, universally known as Begum Akhtar, a legendary figure and one of the last great singers from the tawaif community, often called the "Mallika-e-Ghazal" (Queen of Ghazal). This book meticulously documents her eventful life and extraordinary musical journey through a rich compilation of essays, reminiscences from her closest friends and associates (including luminaries like Bismillah Khan, Lata Mangeshkar, and Shubha Mudgal), and extensive interviews with Begum Akhtar herself and her disciples. Originally a bestseller in Hindi, this English translation offers a cherished volume for all fans of Begum Akhtar and lovers of Indian classical music, delving into her unique artistry, her ability to infuse deep pathos into her renditions, and her lasting legacy in popularizing the ghazal form.
