00:00I have been learning sarod from my father, my guru, Mr. Damjali Khan.
00:05I have been playing sarod since I was 12-13 years old.
00:12So, I am trying.
00:14Sir, your father is also a sarod player.
00:17You must have learnt from him.
00:19When did you start playing sarod?
00:21No, no.
00:22In my family, there was an atmosphere that if you are in the middle of the sea,
00:25you will have to swim.
00:27So, when I was born, I came to know that sarod is everywhere.
00:30And it was very clear when I was a child,
00:32when I didn't practice, my father used to talk less.
00:34So, I understood that if I practice, I will get more love.
00:37So, I just started practicing and when the sarod started playing,
00:41when the sarod accepted me.
00:44See, what happens is that you accept the instrument, that is one thing.
00:47But the fun comes when the instrument accepts you.
00:50So, then a new story begins.
00:52So, we always pray to God,
00:54May God accept your instrument.
00:58In the world of music, there are many such instruments.
01:02You accepted the sarod, the sarod accepted you.
01:05Are there any other instruments like this?
01:07Brother, there were 25-30 sarods in the house,
01:09so there was no other instrument.
01:11So, I just picked it up.
01:13And I think my father was happy that I played the sarod.
01:15So, I played the sarod.
01:17Sir, till date, what all have you played?
01:20How did you play the sarod?
01:22So, the first raag that I played was Shudh Gauri.
01:26So, as a prayer, I just prayed to Manju aunty,
01:31and kept Ustad Zakir Hussain in mind.
01:34And after that, I played Lalita Gauri.
01:36Then I played Raag Desh,
01:38in which I played some bandishes of my father
01:40and a couple of bandishes of my grandfather.
01:42And with me was Tabla Peshaan Ghoshbhai.
01:44He was a very good tabla player.
01:47He is a very good artist.
01:49And I wish him also the very best.
01:51Sir, you are a young artist.
01:54How do you see Shastriya Sangeet today?
01:57It is very good.
01:59Earlier, Shastriya Sangeet used to be in a small room.
02:02Today, 5,000-10,000 people sit and listen to it.
02:05So, the future is very good.
02:08I always request everyone that
02:10whenever you interview someone in any field,
02:13do it with a person who is a little positive.
02:15If I don't get any program,
02:17and you ask me questions,
02:19then I will do a lot of harm to the industry.
02:21So, where is a person?
02:23An actor who has 10 films, will praise them.
02:25A person who has just come out of the theatre,
02:27will do a lot of harm.
02:29So, I think the future is very good.
02:31Today, all the youngsters, classical music,
02:33you see how many people have come.
02:35So, I think the future of classical music is very good.
02:38There is a little vacuum.
02:40It comes in every field.
02:42But it will be fine.
02:44Don't you like Shastriya Sangeet?
02:47I like it.
