| Summary: | Sambhaji Bhagat is the heir of a centuries-old tradition of songs of participation, protest and peace, whose life blood comes from the folklore heritage of Maharashtra.

The article describes, through his words and his songs, the life story of an artist who attempts, with his lyrics, to give voice in Mumbai to the outcast, to those who today most suffer from the processes of marginalization and expulsion. |
