Renowned Bengali singer Nirmala Mishra passed away at her residence in southern Kolkata’s Chetla area in the early hours of Sunday after suffering a massive heart attack, a senior doctor treating her said.
A recipient of the Balakrushna Das Award, Mishra (81) had long been battling age-related ailments.
Mishra suffered a massive heart attack around 12.05 am and was taken to the nearest nursing home, where she was declared dead, the doctor treating her told PTI when contacted.
