PUNE: A loving father, a simple, generous human and an exceptional and unique vocalist is how Shubhada Mulgund describes her father Pandit Bhimsen Joshi.
“Baba was very fond of American cars. We had a Buick when I was four years old and we used to live near the Gopal Gayan Samaj in Pune then. Baba used to take me for a drive. He also rode a bicycle then, and I used to ride double seat with him when mother would send us on errands to the bank or the vegetable market. At the car mechanic, we would sit for hours when Baba discussed the nitty-gritties of maintenance. But I never got bored,” she recalled.
