Dear Friends
Today is the birthday of Living Legend, Shamshad Begum.
I wish her a very happy and healthy year ahead.
To commemorate her birthday, a small website, http://www.shamshadbegum.com has been launched.
Information on the reclusive singer is difficult to get. I hope that with the help of all fans like you, It shall become a ready reference for all fans.
Request all inclined towards contributing to the site to please get in touch with me via the site contact page.
With more hands joining in, we can take this small beginning much further.
At present it has some articles, pictures and over 300 of Shamshad songs available for listening online.
As part of the celebrations, on Hamaraforums' shoutcast radio, a special program on her songs shall be telecast from 10 pm to 11 pm (IST). All are invited to tune in to the program by opening the following link in a shoutcast compatible player like vlc/mplayer:-

I would like to thank all music lovers on rmim, HF and Saat Sur among others who have encouraged me at all times by providing help, and guidance . In particular, I'd like to thank Pradeep for providing the webspace and domain.
Request all to contribute in whatever capacity possible. Do please inform as many friends of yours as possible about the launch of the site.
Best Regards
