‘My Name is Gauhar Jaan!’: The Life and Times of a Musician
tries to demystify the myth and mystery around one of the most
enigmatic legends in Indian music history – Gauhar Jaan. Vikram
Sampath, in this remarkable book, brings forth little known
details of this fascinating woman who was known for her
melodious voice, her multi-lingual skills, poetic sensibility,
irresistible personality and her extravagant lifestyle. From her
early days in Azamgarh and Banaras to the glory years in
Calcutta when Gauhar ruled the world of Indian music, to her sad
fall from grace and end in Mysore, the book takes the reader
through the roller-coaster ride of this feisty musician. In the
process, the author presents a view of the socio-historical context
of Indian music and theatre during that period.
