Nice article...quoting relevant portions from it.😊
"To explore fresh avenues for Indian classical music through Bollywood, music icon Pandit Jasraj's daughter Durga Jasraj will soon produce a Hindi film with a number of classical songs.
"These days no one in Bollywood is making films like 'Baiju Bawra' or 'Tansen', where classical music is part of the storyline. The last such film was Sanjay Leela Bhansali's 'Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam', which had references to classical music," Durga said.
To fill in this void, the singer-turned-anchor will produce a film based on classical music under her production and event management company 'Art and Artistes'. "
"Her reality show 'Jalsa' on Doordarshan brought together classical music and reality show."
"The show had young maestros, selected through a talent hunt, and legendary artists performing in all genres of Indian music like Hindustani, Ghazal, Carnatic, Bhajan, Sufi, folk. "
"She gave the examples of contemporary hit songs like 'Tauba Tera Jalwa' from 'Dev D', which is in 'Raga Bageshri' and Shankar Mahadevan's song 'Sapnon Se Bhare Naina' which is in 'Raga Bhairavi'. "
