- Last Interview with Padma Bhushan Maa Annapurna Devi || Daughter of Baba Allauddin Khan|| Sister Of Ustaad Ali Akbar Khan
Annapurna Devi ( 1927-13 October 2018) was an Indian surbahar (bass sitar) player of Hindustani classical music. She was given the name 'Annapurna' by former Maharaja Brijnath Singh of the former Maihar Estate (M.P.), and it was by this name that she was popularly known. She was the daughter and disciple of Allauddin Khan, the founder of Maihar gharana, and Madina Bibi and the first wife of the sitar player, Ravi Shankar. After her separation from Ravi Shankar, she moved to Bombay and never performed again in public. She remained a private person, yet continued to teach music for free. Her students include many notable disciples including Hariprasad Chaurasia, Nityanand Haldipur and Nikhil Banerjee.

I wrote a comment here below two years ago. I would like to add to it by saying the following here: What a tragedy for Indian music, that neither Annapurna's brother Ustad Ali Akbar Khan, nor her dad Ustad Allauddin Khan bothered to ask her to continue serious performances after Ravi Shanker had left her. Moreover, Ali Akbar Khan had already become famous after his world tours with Ravi Shanker. Why did he not do recorded jugalbandis with his sister as he was doing with Ravi Shankar? Why did he not arrange for Annapurna to at least record her performances in studio, so that Indian classical music would have a treasure trove of professionally recorded music gems from this amazing artist? Why? Why? The only recording of her amazing performance of Manjh Khammaj that we have today on CZcams is full of noise and interference, and even so, it is incomplete and stops abruptly. I have to further add that, during her long years of seclusion after Ravi Shankar had broken off with her, several musicians came to learn music under her, but no one had the sense to get her to do some recordings of her music that may have reached us. That is a great shame. We know that in her self-imposed exile from the music world, she had become a difficult person to deal with, but still the blame for her unrecorded music must fall squarely on her family, and above all on Ravi Shankar himself. Even after divorcing her, he should have had the character to recognize her genius and he could have persuaded her to at least record some of her sterling music properly in a studio. Today, there are people who play the Surbahar, but no one will ever equal the profound depth of her performance of Manjh Khammaj. Just imagine, if we had had a dozen more of her properly recorded performances, either live or in studio, how much richer would Indian Instrumental music have been!
agreed 🙏
Yes sir, your grievances are genuine. I agree and endorse 🙏
We are talking about a strong-willed artist and she decided the course of her.life.
Annapurna Devi is the greatest legend that Indian classical music has ever seen. There hasn’t been anyone who has come close to her art, and as Pt. Nityanand Haldipur puts it, male ego got in the way of her extraordinary career in music.
আমাদের কল্পনার মধ্যে সুপ্ত থাকা এই দেবী-তপস্বীকে দেখা করিয়ে দেবার জন্য অনেক ধন্যবাদ।
It is a great privilege to see Ma Annapurna Devi’s short Interview as she spoke minimal compare to the Interviewer!! She was in a True Sense a Great Legend for a Hindustani Classical Music. Pt. Ravi Shankaraji did a great injustice to his Wife & his Guruji by asking her not to give any Concerts. So she only taught so many great Artists of Past & Present time!! I wish it was more of her talk about herself & her Father, her Guru!! Thanks…for the Video!!
Millions of pranaam to Sri Nityanana Haldipur sahib for taking care of Smt. Annapurna Devi in her final days 🙏🙏🙏
Priceless interview.
And also shekhar sen
Respect
Respect...
Huge respect to you Shekhar Sir

Oh my God, I never thought I would see this goddess talking about music in bengali.
She is a Bengali and so was her father.
I never imagined I would see the Goddess of Indian music on video. Thank you so much 🙏
People who want to read more about Maa should read this book titled “Annapurna Devi: The Untold Story of a Reclusive Genius” by her student Atul Merchant “Jatayu”. A lot of gems in there. Thank me later!
Maa Annapurna Devi is goddess Saraswati . No body can judge her 🦾🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Rarest of the rare gems of our rich cultural heritage.
A True BHARAT RATNA " Those who were fortunate to even touch her feet were very Lucky. My millions of Pranam

I had heard about maa Annapurnadevi but today I came to know more about her through this video. Thanks. Great Guru and human being. Pranam to her.
आपके संगीत के प्रीति इस अमूल्य योगदान के लिए हरएक संगीत विद्यार्थी आपका ह्रदय से आभारी रहेंगे 🙏

Habitat Centre me 2023 me...Jab hamare Guruji ne aapko sunne ke liye bheja tha.(Guruji Pt. Rajendra Prasanna Ji).🙏🙏😌😌🤗🤗
Thank you for posting this interview.. She should be more appreciated than Ravi Shankar
She doesn’t want fame or appreciation. Her riyaaz and sadhana and teachings are in service to the almighty.
agreed sir
Righto
Flower child, why hide yr islamic identity ? 😀
@@dharmashekhar1047 you are a nut. She was named Annapurna devi and worshipped Saraswati. Read my reply below. Ravi Shankar was a twisted,jealous character. He destroyed his own son.
We have learnt and heard about rishis and munis of the past but Ma Annapurna Devi is way above everyone. There never has been a greater soul than Ma ..
The Soul is beyond Intellect, so anyone speaking about soul is a liar, Read UPANISHADS PROPERLY, OR WATCH UPANISHAD GANGA, serial , u will come to know, who r HRISHI AND BRAHMGYANI
Point taken.
But, all souls are the same. None are above or below others.
@@nrao8977 We are not talking here of the pure soul, but the life and body which is expressed through the soul. Surely Bin Laden soul is not so well expressed as that of Gandhi or Einstein :)
@@ashankasen
The soul does nothing more than provide a platform in the form of a mind. The mind "expresses" by projecting. All that one experiences, through the mind, is a projection, not real
Heart touching one, It's a life time opportunity to meet legendary maa Annapurna Devi, blessed.🙏🙏🙏
Documentary of the century!….Thanks a million for uploading
Congratulations for posting such a valuable interview Of Annapurna Devi..
What a great documentary. A legend of the 20th century.
A human can not stop tears while listening Ama Anupurna Devi. There may be no match in the world to Ustad Allaudin, her daughter Ama ji and son Ustad Ali Akbar
बहुत आभार संगीत नाटक अकादमी का और शेखर सेन जी का। यह दुर्लभ साक्षात्कार दिखलाने के लिए
Annapurna Devi was rare genius what Indian classical Sangeet has got.She was perfect legacy/successer of Ustad Allauddin Khan Saab.She never distort her education,what she got it from her father Khan Saab.
One of the greatest Music Teacher India has ever produced in Indian Classical music.So many laurels she produced to the world of music.She is Music monk.
Every music lovers,students should learn life of Annapurna Devi and her devotion to music.She never run for money or frame.She just gifted her soul for the music.
She is Mother of all music aspirants and lovers.
So many stories about greatest Ravi Shankar and Annapurna Devi.My request to all to focus on their education and devotion to Music and learn as much as possible.
She was far better artist than pandit Ravi Shankar but she never proclaim the same. She didn't beleive on commercialization of Hindusthani classical music.
This is priceless gem. Those who are critical of the interviewer should understand that Annapurna Devi was suffering from asthma , so it was difficult for her to talk in length. How can she speak about her life when apart from music every thing had been taken away from her including son Subho Shankar.

Thanks for the video!
The person/s who cared for her, her students and those who made themselves available for this production should be appreciated!
The comments in the discription, have been echoing, even before this video was produced.
They are all tributes but bring to light the harsh facts of life and our society!
Her life was not "wasted" as she was loved and respected by her students - a true teacher.
It seems that a woman/mother or anyone else for that matter, who has been blessed with a gift, is the best teacher!
Not many artists have had such ardent witnesses of the talent like she posessed and her nurturing spirit!
This is a priceless documentary. A big salute to Respected Nityanand’da for grabbing the choicest opportunity to serve the Goddess of music. I envy you dada. Thanks a lot for making and uploading the video. হৃদয়ের অসংখ্য ধন্যবাদ জানাই।
Heart touching video Maa. Praanam, pranaam and only pranaam Maa.
can't imagine how such great things occur in this world. See how Sanjeevkumar instilled the idea of seeking higher knowledge to Harikrishna Chourasia, which was already predicted by Baba & also told to seek knowledge from his daughter. That became true after so many years. Maa Annapurna is a national asset but what an injustice meted out to her. I am proud of Sri Nithyananda Haldipur for his noble service in guru Maa's life. Maybe he is from Kannada speaking region. I wish he gives some insight into Maa Annapurna Devi in kannada language.
Most most unfortunate the work was done even of this heavenly music!! My heart bleeds for what the world has missed & also for Maa - her sacrifice, her pain!!
To know you have gift of music but forced to suppress it - what suffering could be more than this???
এইরকম একটা ভিডিও অনেকদিন খুঁজছিলাম,অনেক অনেক ধন্যবাদ, ওনার স্বর্গীয় বাজনার ঝংকার ,আমরা কালের চক্রে ভালোভাবে পাইনি, উনি সাধিকা ছিলেন, ওনার সুরবাহারের মন্দ্র গম্ভীর বাজনার মধ্যে ঐশ্বরিক উপলব্ধির প্রকাশ তীব্রভাবে অনুভব করি
খুব ভালো লাগলো এই ইন্টারভিউ দেখে। অন্নপূর্ণা সম্বন্ধে অনেক কিছুই জানতে পারলাম। ধন্যবাদ অফুরান
অন্নপূর্ণা দেবী বলুন৷ সম্মান করুন এমন একজন মহীয়সী ব্যক্তিকে৷
I'd never heard of Annapurna Devi...just came across her by chance here on CZcams and was blown away by her humility and devotion to her craft...what an impressive lady. Just wish she had continued with public performances.
गुरु मां को शत शत प्रणाम। दिल से सिर्फ यही भावना निकलती है। ❤

Thanks to you for sharing this valuable interview. I never thought I would have watched Devi Annapurna mata's interview.She deserves more and more respect and appreciation than Ravi Shankar ji.
1:37:47 hours of divinity, of emotions and surrealism....😍😍😍😍
My eyes are filled with tears 😢 what a personality..... speechless!!! She should appreciated more than pt ravishankar ji.....Naman🙏
Ma ke koti koti pranam.

What a wonderfully educational treat of the history of a great musician -
My heart is touched TRUE embodiment of Maa and guru...a lots of respect ...no doubt she is god of music and pure human being for me ....a lots of respect ...may her soul rest in peace we lost a jewel in 2018....a heartfelt respect 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 ...really after this I m so influenced to be her student really....if I would hv been born earlier ...I would try my best to be her student really a TRUE embodiment of ma Saraswati
It's such a precious video. It reminds me of my own Guruma. The way Maa Annapurna Devi ji apologized for the inconvenience to the team members and asked nityanand ji to offer food to everyone, it totally reminds me of my Guruma who never sent me back hungry. Every trait of Maa Annapurna Devi ji resembles the traits of my Guruma. This video is full of so many feelings and is about a great legend who takes birth once in a millennium.
Absolutely Amazing. The most precious,valuable information and knowledge is shared.
Thanks a lot for sharing 🙏🙏
इतनी सारी जानकारी जो आपकी मदद से आज यह सारी जानकारी लाइव देख पाया इसके लिए दिल से आभारी हूं

I saw Ustad Ali Akbar Khan in live concert as a very young person in Berkeley Ca, 1972. I only listen to his sarod in the field of Indian sarod players. Of course I hear his family members as well, now that internet has introduced us.
Before I had CD in my car of Ali Akbar Khan, and everytime we drove it was the music we heard!

Mind blowing….. what a teacher. Maa Saraswati ko pranam

Ma saraswati ma annya purna pr0nam
This anchor is in love with his own voice. Doesn't let Annapurna devi speak.
It is difficult to talk to a very old person. Have you ever talked to any old person? Very difficult to make them tell whatever we want to know.
This coment of K''s must be taken into account. We must get the information, to the extent possible, without any inconveniences to her.
Remarkable upload. Thanks
A rare treat! Every thing that I have heard about Maa Annapurna Devi is expressed by her disciples! And her music, her knowledge and love shine through them. There is a deep reverence and love for her that comes through each of them. Thank you! 🙏
Thanks to share this treasure with all.I really feel blessed to see this.🙏🙏
Thank you so much for this ......... Carry on
এই ভালো লাগা ভাষায় প্রকাশ করা যাবে না। এ এক অদ্ভুত অনুভূতি। অনেক ধন্যবাদ এই ভিডিওর জন্যে। আগামী দিনে মায়ের আরো যদি কোনো সাক্ষাতের ভিডিও থাকে, তা দেখার অপেক্ষায় থাকব।
Its a rare interview. I could know manything about Maa. Although Ravi Shankar was well known but everyone know his popularity was mostly due to immense sacrifice by Annapurna
Khub mullyoban interview.
Pronam mataji.
🙏🙏🙏
No words to thank you for thia video
You have done a splendid work.Many Thanks from Heart..
Respect for the Guru-sishya parampara...no other words..!🙏🙏
Guru Ma Annapurna Devi is my inspiration in music. But for her one would have wondered whether Hindustani classical music has lost forever its spiritual touch. Ma Annapurna is the living link of the great musical heritage of age-old India with this otherwise decadent age we are living in.
Hardik dhanyawad,
Amazing 👌👌
Treasure of treasures. Thank you so much sir 🙏

Ma pronam
Sangeet natak academy must be thanked profusely for this video. Very little was known about this extraordinary lady & musician, daughter of legendary Ustad Allaudin Khan . This is a comprehensive video . It's a sad thing that no one has written a authoritative biography on Smt Annapurna Devi till date .At least this video has given us some glimpses into the life of this extraordinary lady , who kept herself in the shadows for so long , yet tutored a galaxy of instrumentalists renowned the world over.
You should checkout this book “Annapurna Devi: The Untold Story of a Reclusive Genius” by her student Atul Merchant “Jatayu”. You would be in for a treat 🙂
