    ie the permalink base is as follows:
    /%category%/%postname%/

    You apparently have altered the default rewrite rules in order for the category archive URL for “musical” to work without any kind of base element such as /category/. These kind of schemes often fail when sub-categories are involved. I recommend going back to utilizing a category base in your URLs. After restoring the base, visit the permalinks settings screen to cause your rewrite rules to be regenerated.

    The base doesn’t have to be /category/, it could be /cat/ or even /c/, but it’s best to have some sort of base URL element. Otherwise WP has difficulty knowing if the request is for a sub-category term or a post.

    Resolved with the help of the siteground techies and code added to function.php file
