Ladies Special - Nimisha Shankar

Published: March 26, 2023, 9:30 p.m.

It\u2019s the final chapter of our 2023 Ladies Special, and we\u2019re featuring Bhojpuri folk artist Nimisha Shankar. She chats to Mae about how learning classical music as a child wasn\u2019t something that interested her as much as singing folk music, interacting with Bhojpuri-speaking people from over 16 countries, and setting up Recalling Roots, a project that brings together musical & cultural identities from around the world.


Song List:

Peet Chunariya (01:33 - 03:51)

Barse Lagal (17:19 - 19:39)

Duniya (27:24 - 30:28)
