srkris,
Thanks!

I imagined a border to that sari which wrapped all around her shoulder, put waves in her silvery hair, saw her eyes open with grace filled in them, and there she was!

Google is so good in bringing to our attention those who have contributed to the world of science and the arts. Humanitarians are also featured.

Some graphics come packed with action and sound, which I love. At least for her centenary, let's hope they bring an authentic illustration of her, with her singing!

Rasikas.org can perhaps directly thank Google for their gesture. As indirectly suggested by Arasi, could we suggest to use a real picture of MSS darkened as in a shadow (experts in photoshop can do it in seconds) and adding a violin in the ensemble.
