My Take
Monali Thakur is the rare artist who refuses to be boxed into one craft, and that's exactly why I rate her so highly. A National Film Award and a Filmfare Award for playback singing already place her among India's finest voices, and yet she steps in front of the camera as an actress too. Her work on songs like "Sawaar Loon" and "Moh Moh Ke Dhaage" suggests a singer who treats emotion as the real instrument. I'm always drawn to performers who can move you through both voice and screen, and this Kolkata-born talent does both with a quiet, unmistakable conviction.
