Sandhya Mukherjee

Taj: Divided By Blood will premiere on Zee5 on March 3, 2023

Thousands lined up on the road on Wednesday and her evergreen Bengali songs were played over the public address system as the body of legendary singer Sandhya Mukherjee was taken on its last journey.

Legendary Bengali semi-classical singer Sandhya Mukherjee, who had worked with leading music directors such as SD Burman, Naushad and Salil Chaudhury, died on Tuesday evening following a massive cardiac arrest. She was 90.

Legendary singer Sandhya Mukherjee was taken to a hospital after her health condition deteriorated this morning.

All three people from Bengal on the BJP-led government's honour list have refused the Padma awards -- a situation deeply embarrassing in a state where the BJP suffered a stunning electoral defeat last year.

Ms Mukherjee's daughter Soumi Sengupta said that her mother told the senior official who called from Delhi that she was not willing to be named as a Padma Shri recipient and felt "insulted" at her being offered the award at her age.

The Bengal music industry today described legendary singer Manna Dey as an institution who never compromised with music.
