About Sitara Devi
Sitara Devi (born Dhanlakshmi; 8 November 1920 – 25 November 2014) was an Indian dancer of the classical Kathak style of dancing, a singer, and an actress. She was the recipient of several awards and accolades, and performed at several prestigious venues in India and abroad; including the Royal Albert Hall, London (1967) and at the Carnegie Hall, New York (1976). At a young age Devi met Rabindranath Tagore. He out of affection described her as Nritya Samragni (नृत्य सम्राज्ञी ), meaning the empress of dance, after watching her performance when she was just sixteen years old. Some people consider her as the Kathak queen.
