New York: Playback legend Asha Bhosle and Pandit Ravi Shankar’s daughters Anoushka and Norah Jones have been nominated for the prestigious Grammy Awards 2005.

72-year-old Asha Bhosle and Anoushka have been nominated in the category of best contemporary world music album. Bhosle’s album titled You’ve Stolen My Heart—Songs From R D Burman’s Bollywood was made in collaboration with Kronos Quartet.

Norah Jones, Anoushka’s half sister, is in contention for the best pop collaboration with vocals category (her album Virginia Moon is collaborative with Foo Fighters) in nominations announced on Thursday night.

Anoushka? the cutie from Virudh?

This Anoushka is Ravi Shanker's daughter. Don't know if it's same Anoushka in Viruddh.

I just realised that it's not the same one. the one in virudh is AnouSHA, last name Dandekar.

Anoushka should win ... she is an excellent sitar player. I was fortunate to see her in concert in London a couple of years ago. Ravi Shankar was in the audience (we were sat just behind him). The place was packed and the concert was suberb. I have all of her CDs ... great stuff.

I would also like Asha to win - and maybe due to her recent collaboration she may do - however, personally I did not like the Kronos Quartet album ...
