Sitar Grace || Roopa Panesar || LIVE || Authentic Afghani Tunes || Bhairavi, AyDil AyDil- Anar Anar

UK's much loved and respected, Sitar Maestra Ms Roopa Panesar was a special guest at The Music Room (TMR)/Friend's Hearth (Kashana-e-ikhlas) on 29 April 2023.
She was accompanied on Tabla by none other than the UK's amazing and renowned Ustad Shahbaz Hussain.
As TMR is an Afghani establishment, Ms Panesar obliged by presenting this double item as a surprise gift to TMR as well as to her Afghan fans around the world, which is greatly appreciated.
Song titles: "Ay dil ay dil dil-e diwana" & "Anar anar".

Roopa ji I am the great fan of you. You proved that music has no boundries of religion and nation. It only spreads love. Thank you so much for such a lobely melody.🎉🎉❤

[@dhatidhaghe1108]

Beautiful sitar played by an even more beautiful lady and great tabla !

[@kanavkhanna82]

Roopa Panesar, British born, Indian Heritage, in all likelihood a Sikh by birth based on her surname (Panesar), with her first name Roopa being indicative of her Sanatan Dharma (Hinduism) roots, the instrument she plays is called "Sitar"... The instrument of Ma Saraswati (Mother Saraswati) who is the deity that blesses you with such talents like knowledge, music, art, speech, wisdom, and learning. She has trained under and learnt from many masters of Hindustani Classical music of all faiths. Music is divine, takes you closer to the divinity irrespective of your religion or where you are born. Blessed soul she is.

God bless you. What a performance. United the key afghan - Indian connections of music. Incredible. Ustad Taranazas and Ahmad Zahir will be happy hearing such a incredible performance if they were alive. Great job. Love you Roopa!

[@BazmAfarin]

زنده باشید لذت بردم💕

[@samanee58Tajikculture]

The two melodies played in here in sitar, were both Persian/Farsi Kabuli songs. The first naghma was one of the famous songs of the late Ahmad Zahir and the second was the folk Persian song of Tajiks of Kabulistan/Khurasan- called anar anar bia ba baaleenum.... This later medlody was also used in the Hidi legend movie of Pakeeza in the train scene when Rajkumar faces the slept Meena Kumari. When Meen moves here hena dyed feet.... this Anaar Anaar is played in sitar... Mrs. Roopa Panesar really really plays it wonderfully. God Bless!

[@BlueWizard09]

The first track was not from Ahmad zahir. It was from a famous song of shadkam nawabi. Zahir just sang it at a party or so. Not sure if you are Afghan but we never credit that so to zahir and like another 80 songs which were from other artists.

[@samanee58Tajikculture]

@@BlueWizard09 You are right and thanks for correcting me about the first melody. Yes, it was sang by Shadkam for the first time. But Ahmad Zahir's is the best I think the reason behind the fame of this song is Ahmad Zahir for he sang it so lively and so sweet than Shadkam. This is my opinion No, I am not Afghan (Pashtun). I am a Tajik from Kabul.

[@BlueWizard09]

@@samanee58Tajikculture oh ok. Yea people who are born in Afghanistan call themselves Afghan. I guess you were actually born in Tajikistan but your parents lied to you and told you were from Kabul.
