In his condolence message, Mr Chouhan said Asgari Bai had enriched Indian classical music with her distinct style and aesthetic perception of 'sur (note)'. Her compositions had a 'divine' touch, as per an official release here today.

Mr Chouhan prayed for granting peace to the departed and strength to the bereaved.
