Ek Mulakaat with Rekha Bhardwaj

With Sourendro, Rekha Bhardwaj, Soumyajit and Usha Uthup at Tolly Club
June 22, 2017: I attended the second edition of Ek Mulakat in Kolkata at the Tollygunge Club. The guest of the session was singer Rekha Bhardwaj who was in conversation with Sourendro and Soumyajit of I & You.
The session started a little late as the guests, who faced bad traffic, took some time to make it to the venue. The Ek Mulakat series started in Kolkata with Swraj Paul but the first event was held at The Taj Bengal. This series is organized by Prabha Khaitan Foundation in association with the Times of India and Tollygunge Club.

The discussion was very well conducted by the Sourendro and Soumyajit duo who are themselves very creative and from the world of music. Rekha Bhardwaj shared her experiences of being in Taiwan and Turkey and her trysts with sufism and spirituality. She shared with the audience some very interesting facts about whirling, dervishes and how she tries to find her own centre and balance while performing on stage. She said her spiritual and inner experiences have helped her grow into a better person.
