The song at the end is not sung by Pt. Bhimsen Joshi. I can’t put my finger on who it is but it is definitely not him!

The sound quality may not be very good as it seems this was recorded by an amateur, but this definitely is Bhimsen Joshi.

Hmm… the voice sounds nothing like him. It isn’t about the audio quality, the timbre is just wrong! Moreover, the style of singing isn’t like him either!
But if you know where it came from, then I’ll take your word for it!
Love this blog btw and look forward to more “Random songs” posts!

@ mohit
You may hear this same song at musicindiaonline.com.
If you can’t find the song there, here is the direct link :

The timbre of the voice could change with age. Don’t forget he has been singing for more than half a century. This song could be from anytime during this period.
Moreover, I take special care in posting all the material on this blog, so that silly mistakes like giving wrong identity of stalwarts of classical music do not happen… 🙂
