Ashwini Bhide Deshpande is recognised as one of the most talented singers in India. Born in Mumbai into a family of musicians, she was trained in khayal singing from a very early age by Pandit Narayanrao Datar, Pandit Ratnakar Pai, and her mother, Smt. Manik Bhide.
Characterised by a mix of vitality and emotion, Ashwini’s exceptional musicality is recognised by the press and a large public. Her vocal approach is inspired by the raga, which produces moments of rare intensity, introspection and shared joy.
