Biography
Shashikala earned a Bachelor of Arts and settled in Hubballi, where she married Shri Arun Dani, son of journalist T.S.R. Awardee Lt. Shri Surendra Dani.[4] They have a son together, the musician Sugnan Dani. After working at the State Bank of Mysore for 33 years, she is now recognized as a notable Jal tarang artist,[5][6][7] striving hard to preserve, develop, and promote this unique instrument.[8]
Musical career
Particularly fascinated by Jal tarang, she decided to dedicate and develop her classical music career with a focus on this instrument.[9]
After much experimentation with the Jal tarang, Shashikala has imbibed both "Gayaki and Tantrakari Angs"[10] in her playing style. She is trained in the Gwalior Gharana School of Hindustani Classical Music under her father and Guru Pt. D. R. Warang.[11][12] She has also developed multiple other styles over the years. Her forte is "Layakari".[13][14]
She is presently involved in mentoring young and passionate musical talents at her institute, Swara Naada Sangeeta Vidyalaya®.[15]
