Hariharan Ghazals

Blessed with a mellifluous voice and impeccable musical skills - Hariharan was trained both in Carnatic and Hindustani music - this Tamilian from Bombay first made his mark in an unconventional way - as a ghazal singer. But his fame was restricted to a small coterie of dedicated ghazal fans. Hariharan has also long sung for Hindi films and for Tamil films since 1993 but, ironically, it was an album in which he has sung in English that catapulted him to the heights of fame.
