Sufi is one such sphere of music, which people believe to be is a male dominated one. However, there are Sufi singers like Roohani Sisters, who being women, have made a mark in the Sufi world. Sufi music holds an altogether different place in the hearts of music lovers. Through the years, it has transformed but still there is an unusual essence to it.
There are some Sufi singers who have worked immesely hard to keep the beauty of Sufism intact and two of them, Dr. Jagriti Luthra Prasanna and Dr. Neeta Pandey Negi, are popular names in the Sufi world.
