Shubha Mudgal burst into the Indi Pop scene in the late 1990’s and was a big, big hit. The albums Ab ke Sawan and Pyar ke Geet are still amongst my faves. I heard her first as an Indi Pop artiste and later learnt that she is a very good classical singer. I’ve missed two of her concerts in the last five years. Third time lucky I guess. Got in by the early evening flight yesterday and made it in time to watch Shubha Mudgal perform at The Tolly. What a voice! What a fabulous treat! And if you havent heard her sing before you can hear a bit of the song “Seekho Na” by clicking on the video below.
The pen & ink sketch above is supposed to be of her. Didnt get much of a likeness though.
Update : It was pleasure to see Shubha Mudgal interact and connect with her audience and see another side to the artist during the show. She is very articulate and has a good sense of humour. She has been blogging for a while and you’ll enjoy the posts. I only wish there were more!
What a gorgeous, dramatic drawing! I can’t judge the likeness because the link didn’t work for me, but it’s beautiful work no matter what!
thank you casey for the lovely comment and the heads up. i’ve fixed the broken link.
That is a great sketch! Did you do it “live” or from a photo you took of her? Either way, it is yet another superb one from you.
thank you. no, not live. it was dark and i was too busy enjoying the show : ) used a ref i found online. i’ve put the link in the post above.
