The Tragedy of A Relationship | superaalifragilistic. In August 2000, Ravi Shankar’s first wife, the reclusive surbahar virtuoso Annapurna Devi, did her only interview in 60 years with me in which she spoke about her torturous marriage and the tragic life of their son Shubho. Originally published in Man’s World, it was rediscovered by a journalist in December 2012 after the demise of Pandit Ravi Shankar. Since then, the story of Annapurna Devi has gone viral logging in over 10k Likes on Facebook and 900 shares. It’s an amazing, unforgettable story of a rare modern-day musician mystic. In the Hindustani classical music fraternity, Annapurna Devi’s genius is part of a growing mythology.

The daughter of the great Ustad Allauddin Khan, the sister of Ustad Ali Akbar Khan and the divorced wife of Pandit Ravi Shankar, she is considered to be one of the greatest living exponents of both the surbahar and the sitar. The tragedy is that her music is lost to the world. Annapurna Devi’s aloofness from the world extends to not even taking phone calls. DAY211 - Debashish Bhattacharya and Subhasis Bhattacharjee.
