World famous Hindusthani classical music singer and Padama Vibhushan Awarded Gangu Bai Hanagal passes away today at hospital in Hubli , Krnataka. She was suffering from various kind of diseases . She was 97 year old.

A Biography of Gangu bai Hanagal.
Birth: 5th march 1913
name:Gangubai Hangal
Origin:Hubli, Karnataka
Hindusthani classical music- Khayal

Nicknamed “gaanewali”, she was ostracized by the orthodox brahmins. But her irrepressible talent brought her the respect, status and the financial security she has always craved.
The story of the little girl Gangubai from Hangal, a remote village in Karnataka, almost reads like a fairy tale.
Born in Dharwar, in 1913, into a family of Gangamats, or a class of simple boatmen, the social milieu in which Gangubai was brought up was by no means conducive. Being a shudra, and that too of the lowest order, was compounded by the fact that she was born into a family where the female folk assumed the role of what was euphemistically referred to as “Angavasthra”, a term which, if literally translated, would correspond to an additional cloth or ornament draped by sophisticated men as a status symbol; a practice which was not necessarily considered immoral a century back. Gangubai, like her mother Ambabai, and her grandmother Kamlabai, all good musicians in their own right, belonged to this tradition. Both her father, Shri Nadgir and her husband, Shri Kaulgi, were brahmins, but interestingly, neither she nor her mother, assumed their names after marriage, or lived with them and their families; even Gangubai’s children and grandchildren continue to call themselves “Hangal”.
