Bhinna Shadja

'Bhinna Shadja', a film on the unparalleled contributions of Ganasaraswati Padmavibhushan Kishori Amonkar (fondly known as Tai) to Indian classical music, is also an exploration of larger debates on the nature of art itself. Often criticised for experimenting with classical traditions of the Japiur-Atrauli Gharana, Tai nonetheless strove in her passionate resolve to emphasise evocation of moods over an orthodox rendition of ragas. This vilification by conservatives however did not deter her audiences and other contemporary artists from appreciating her transcendental aesthetics. The film explores some of these questions as not just pertaining to her own life but as artistic dilemmas that resonate in many other contexts. Tai's apprehension that with age her music might begin to elude her is also one of the most fundamental predicaments that artists face.

Probably the best thing Amol Palekar did in his Career! Excellent visuals and substantial insights in the Kishori ji’s Singing ! Maharashtrachya Sanskrutic Dhana madhye Amolik Ratnachi Bhar GhalNari Documentry !🎉🎉❤❤🎉🎉

[@anilshenoy7167]

She passed away today... and I dont know how to react... only those who knew her music know what the world has lost today

[@varshabhatt7707]

सगळ्यांना माहीतच आहे किशोरी ताई किती महान कलाकार आहेत पण ह्या क्लिप मध्ये त्या किती खरोखरच सुरांशी प्रामाणिक आहेत ते प्रकर्षाने जाणवत नव्हे हृदयास भिडत त्यांचा एक एक शब्द मनावर कोरला जातो ....वाह शब्द कमीच पडतात कधी कधी हे आज परत जाणवलं ....Many thanks for such a wonderful video...

[@deepak0625]

THE BEST EVER - just listening to the Bhoop at start bought me to tears - Such divinity in her music - no one else has it :( Will be missed forever

[@prajwalbm132]

We will miss this Legend forever.......... The divine voice from paradise ........... Her majestic tone had mystically captivated us since decades and shall continue to do so till the last man breaths his last .....! Some people are only born; they never die ! Even if the Legend dies , their legacy will remain forever in the pages of past and hearts of mere mortals. RIP, Kishori Amonkar, the Legend. 😍💕😍

[@harishchinai938]

We the music lovers and admirers of Kishoritai are so fortunate to be living to cherish and enjoy Kishoritai's music, her sadhana, her world of Surs to have her with us. May the lord grant her a long long life and best of health.

[@SimplicityOfficial4]

I feel so lucky that I know Marathi!.. This documentary is really a way to heaven... So many facts and the unknowns about Music are unfolded here!..

[@RajendraTandon]

I feel blessed to be able to listen to Kishoriji. I wish I could carry her music to the other world and play it to God. He too would be blessed. She is a genuine Bharat Ratna. Rajendra TANDON.

[@shankyxyz]

Zakirjis commentry at the start is absolutely spot on. For e.g. her Shankara rendering is not only the greatest example of a Shankara, probably the greatest piece of khayal music in the 20th century. brought tears to my eyes.

[@surmalhar1]

Many Many thanks to Amol and Sandhyaji for bringing this to us. Its always an out of world experience to hear Tai sing but to hear her explain the thoughts behind her music is a treasure to cherish. I would request to go further and make a full series of her lectures, demonstrations (or publish from past) which would help understand and appreciate this music for the generations to come.

[@jagann05]

Shri Amol palekar's tribute to the legendary Ganasaraswathi kishori Amokarji is a a great spiritual experience.thanks to the film maker our favourite Amolji.

[@pratisthabhandari3350]

I request the makers of this Great Gaanasaraswati Kishoriji's video to give captions on vdo with English and Hindi language for those lovers of Kishoriji who don't know Marathi pls this is my humble request to Amolji and Sandhyaji ....... Tku very much. "I hope you will listen to my plea ".....

[@HarishankarSuryavanshi]

Yes

[@aniruddha129]

Please do this. Many international people like me from Nepal are completely awestruck by such purity of music by Taiji. And would be extremely grateful if it was available in Hindi or English.

[@shrutikazile1622]

Yes ,...madam......you are quite correct logically,...... But the interview which was mentioned in it are recorded in Marathi...only that's why kishoritai answering all interview in Marathi...... Otherwise she is very fluent in English also with a perfect axcent

[@PriyaHaveliaofficial]

Yes please provide one with subtitles in English or Hindi Please

[@brindaupadhyaya9187]

The Raga KIshori Tai is singing at the very beginning is Ecstasy...that is for only for 2 mints...truly divine..That 2 mints will give u worlds most calm feeling which cant be bought by spending million dollars.....

Kishori Amonkar at the height of her prowess was a gods gift to mankind. Every time I hear her and the only word that comes to my mind is "perfect".

i always remain speechless and stunned since my childhood, whenever i hear her golden voice, divine, cherismatic,energetic, that shows her saadhna and bhakti and intelligence. No words to explain her singing talent. She should be rewarded Bharat Ratna, a small favour above het versatile talent. my Salutations to her, my prayers for her long and healthy life. we are fotunate to hear her,thanks to Goddess Saraswati, Laxmiji and Vishnuji for giving her.

Hi ,is there any way to add subtitle on the video,,it would be eternally appreciated...i believe an artist like Kishori tai is on the same league as leonardo da vinci,picasso or even bach cos she makes you experience the truest essence of these seven notes and to understand her music one has to be very intense because she makes you dive deep,into the deepest part of our soul,of lost journeys and forbidden love as she colors those notes with the purity of her heart and soul..
