Portrait of Kaushiki Chakraborty
Patiala gharana · khayal and thumri

Kaushiki Chakraborty

Indian classical vocalist of the Patiala gharana (born 1980), daughter and student of Ajoy Chakraborty. She sings khayal, thumri, dadra and bhajan, and won the BBC Radio 3 Award for World Music in the Asia-Pacific category in 2005. Her devotional singing sits inside the classical form rather than beside it.
