Moitra cited several reasons for doing so: one, the lyrics are repetitive; two, the downside of hearing music with minimalistic sound, due to its unsophisticated instrumentation on a superior sound system, creates disappointment for listeners; and, last, the difficulty of understanding the lyrics itself, which are usually in a language or dialect that the listener is not familiar with [effectively, Moitra, reiterated the point initially raised by Churamani].<\/p>\n<p>Moitra dwelled into his treasure trove of memories as he spoke about interacting with a folk singer who, he believed, was unaware of life beyond her simplistic life in a small town, until she showed him a photograph of her sandwiched between two persons, whose faces that appeared familiar to Moitra, but he remained unsure about them until he turned over the photograph and read about their identities: John McLaughlin and Eric Clapton! More nostalgia flowed as Churamani and Moitra also reminisced the release of \u2018<em>Mann Ke Manjeere<\/em>\u2019 \u2013 the album and music video supported by a campaign created by human rights organization \u2018Breakthrough\u2019 which promoted women&#8217;s rights \u2013 back in 2020, if this writer remembers correctly, as he was part of the record label, Virgin Records [also known as EMI India; since merged with Universal Music], that released it then.<\/p>\n<p>Moitra was clearly emphatic about making the genre\u2019s future brighter by mentioning that \u201c<em>Rajasthani is not the only folk music<\/em>\u201d that exists in India and, at the same time, proposing that the government steps into formulating a policy promoting the genre by having radio stations allocate at least one hour a day dedicated to folk music.<\/p>\n<p>From Kashmir arrived <strong>Aabha Hanjura<\/strong>, who has taken the mantle of promoting the sounds of her state to a wider audience through her singing talent over the past ten years or so.
