Indian philosophy offers two paths to realise the divine: <em>sagun</em> and <em>nirgun</em>, in which divinity is expressed with and without form and attributes, respectively.

She is adept in Bollywood and experimental genres and has performed at various places in India and other countries. Having collaborated with several renowned labels and performed for films and dramas, she is a recipient of notable awards and accolades.

This presentation will include gems of <em>bhakti sangeet</em> ranging from the <em>prabhatiyas</em> of Narsinh Mehta, <em>bhajans</em> of Gangasati, Bhago Charan, Toli Rani, Meerabai and others along with some regional folk forms.
