Gazal singer Jagjeet singh

Born on the 8th of February, 1941 in Sri Ganganagar in Rajasthan, INDIA, Jagjit Singh is the most popular ghazal singer in the world. Jagjit Singh is among the finest in this industry along with great talents like Mehndi Hassan and Ghulam Ali.

Jagjit's ghazals brings out the emotional side of ghazal and peotry lovers. His ghazals do a wonderful job in delivering tranquility (where "mai-khana" is involved :), passion, serenity, pain ("sweet pain" in love), deepness, grief, love and a reminder of one's own personal past.

His voice, a true gift of God has the pain that an "ashiq" feels after loosing his beloved, the love that a mother seeks for her child, the tranquility that a "saaqi" delivers, the willing fear that a boy has when she walks in the room.
