who anarkali is
Anarkali is a legendary young woman said to be loved by the 16th-century Mughal Prince Salim, who later became Emperor Jahangir. According to some accounts, Anarkali was the nickname of the courtesan (tawaif) Mehr-un-Nisa, though scholars hold varying opinions.
where this comes from
wikidata records no birth or death date for Anarkali, but wikipedia still describes them in the present tense — so as far as the record goes, still here. your browser re-checks this against wikidata on every visit, so it’s current even if the page itself was cached a while ago.
