Begum Akhtar, born Akhtari Bai Faizabadi in 1914, was a celebrated Indian classical singer and actress widely hailed as "Mallika-e-Ghazal" (Queen of Ghazals). Trained under renowned masters of Hindustani music, she made her public debut at age fifteen and broke tradition by transitioning from private mehfils to public concert stages. Alongside her vocal career, she acted in several Hindi films during the 1930s and 1940s, including Mehboob Khan's Roti, before fully devoting herself to pure classical performance. After a brief hiatus following her 1945 marriage to barrister Ishtiaq Ahmed Abbasi, she returned to recording and All India Radio, eventually building a discography of nearly four hundred songs. Recognized for her emotive, raag-based compositions, she earned prestigious national honors including the Sangeet Natak Akademi Award, Padma Shri, and a posthumous Padma Bhushan. She fell ill during a concert in Ahmedabad and passed away on October 30, 1974, leaving an indelible legacy across the ghazal, thumri, and dadra genres.

Know your real Avengers 🚨
- Captain Smit Machchhar, who fought the attacker and opened the cockpit
- Asaf Redjuan, who rushed at the attacker
- Israeli dad Tzvika Mans, who tied the attacker with a cable so he couldn't move
- Yaniv Hayon, who handled the aircraft and kept it stable
- Dr. Shota Musaev, who treated the captain and stopped the excessive bleeding.
They all worked together and made sure all those 180 passengers landed safely. Truly, men are brave 🙏
