The Nightingale. A personality whom eveyone has only good things to say about ! That smile, eyes and grace nobody can forget. Her charity, being humble are qualities everyone knows about her. I normally donot respond to your other quiz, but this is someone I am very sentimental about.

One of my most favourite is the way she rendered, "Dasa meera, laal giridhar" in "Hari tuma haro" .. I love that bhavam, her expression, the sangadhis, the way she holds her hand then and the tears too ! Touchy.. I learnt that song just by listening to her.
