Mukta Singh – Being An ‘Air force Wife’
Being married to an Air force pilot, her ambitions had to take a turn due to constant travelling and transfers her husband went through. Post-marriage, her life consisted in taking care of her children and her ailing mother.
Mukta Singh also worked as a freelance for many newspapers and magazines. Apart from being a writer, she was an artistic person who put her thoughts and vision into iconic paintings. She painted iconic musical personalities on canvas and would draft their most popular songs through graphic imagery.
She also loved music. But amidst the passion and the jest, the feeling of doing something of her own surpassed all the time.
She couldn’t dedicate herself to a full-time career due to her ailing mother. With time slipping out, she accepted her greying hair. She took care of her health and followed a healthy routine. For some, it may seem casual, but for Mukta Singh, it was the beginning of something beautiful.
