Mehdi Hasan

The man who gave ghazal singing a total different touch across the globe. The artiste who put Pakistan on the international map for ghazal rendition. The artiste who was an inspiration for Jagjit Singh, Hariharan, Rajendra Mehta, Parvez Mehdi and etal (Listen to Jagjit's some 70's number Apna gham bhool gaye, tere jafaa paane ko, he is absolutely Mehdi Hasan in style of singing).

Today, Mehdi Hasan, 82 years and at a hospital in Pakistan with severe health condition. Struggling for money.....

What's happening???? Not able to understand the human beings. No one seems to be connected to Mehdi bhai now. Sad, self-centred world !!

  2. Sunil, since this is the situation which is beyond Indian jurisdiction, we may not be alble to do anything. What an irony !! When there is no jurisdiction for music, for helping someone from other country has !!!
