They together remain one of the most popular duet teams and are considered pioneers in modern ghazal singing. Chitra Singh (maiden name Née Dutta), born in a Bengali family had no formal musical training but had strong roots of music in her family and learnt much of her music by listening to her mother's guru. Chitra singh met Jagjit singh in Bombay in late 1960s and both used to sing jingles for various adverts, thus starting a career together. Their career as a duo took off with lanching of The Unforgettables, an album which had several firsts to its credits and which revolutionised the concept of Ghazal ghayaki. Till then, it was confined to mehfils (a musical performance, mainly of ghazals with not a very large audience) and primarily patronized by the elite of the society. Along with ghazals, the duo sang and composed for Hindi, Punjabi and Bengali albums. They contributed to devotional music by releasing albums such as Krishna, Chirag, Hey Ram, Shabads. Indeed Krishna is one of the largest selling titles in its category. After the untimely and tragic death of her son Vivek Singh in a road accident, Chitra stopped singing and retreated into a private world. She has been learning and working on different forms of spirituality and believes in psychic healing methods. Many of the duo's fans still miss her splendid voice which gave songs such as Yeh tera ghar yeh mera ghar, Tum aao to sahi, Saare badan ka khoon, Mitti da bawa etc. Chitra Singh - Discography A Milestone 1980 Main aur Meri Tanhaayee 1981 The Latest 1982 Ecstasies 1984 A Sound Affair 1985 Echoes 1985-86 Live Recordings Beyond Time 1987 Mirza Ghalib 1988 Passion / Black Magic 1988 Ghazals from Films 1989 Memorable Ghazals of Jagjit and Chitra 1990 Someone Somewhere 1990 H O P E 1991
