Ustad Zakir Hussain at Kolkata Literary Meet 2018

Zakir Hussain - A Life in Music Zakir Hussain and Nasreen Munni Kabir discuss the Ustad’s memoirs. In conversation with Shantanu Ray Chaudhuri and Bickram Ghosh

[@soumyachakravarty7719]

Out of a lot of interviews heard so far of Ustadji this one is the best as Bikram Ghosh himself is a v.deep person( don’t go with his superficial appearance)and an excellent tabla player. Ustadji is the God of all the musicians in this present era of Indian Classical Music witnessing all the legends very closely and still so humble !!! Why is he not awarded the Bharat Ratna till now , unclear

[@arjunalco6589]

I was fortunate to attend a live show of Ustadji at Khairagarh University, Chhattisgarh in 2019 December. It was one of the most pleasant experience of my life.

[@Rajaram-mr5bliss]

I realized the value of humility from Ustad Zakir Hussain ji. Great interview. Thank you

[@sonjibsinha3206]

Insaan jab khush hona chahe to great Zakir Hussain Sahab ko dekh le ❤️🇮🇳 I just love him so much

[@Prof_Hazra_IIT]

What a man....the whole humanity should stand up, make a note of this and learn from him.

[@MOMENTSOFRHYTHM]

👌👍

[@Swarmandal1025]

As always, my head bows to his feet in kind humility! What a legend! What an artist! What a human being Zakirbhai is! Also proud of my younger brother Vikram for being him!

[@OmkarDeole]

I'm into tears after 'listening' to Zakir bhai.... and watta lucky guy Bikram ji is.... to be baby seated by Zakir bhai 🙆‍♂️🙍‍♂️

[@manash12342011]

ustad ji aap to hamare liye khuda ya bhagawan ya chirst ho....hame ap jaisa banna nahi sref apka ashirbaad chahiyee...baas itna sa hi khwaiesh....

[@rangitsengupta3025]

It's always so enlightening to hear Ustad Zakir ji

[@kamleshvatish1201]

It was the most amazing interview of Zakir Hussain .he shared so much information,vast amount of life experiences,how many different musicians from all walks of life with whom he had privilege to work learn,share and demonstrate..brilliant

[@thetablatraining]

Thanks you so much for uploading such a great video about Great Tabla Player Ustad Zakir Hussain

[@nblood7104]

I'm glad they conversed in English, therefore non Indian like me can understand it as well.

[@nimo5775]

None of any tabla player in this earth has got that kind of prowess to sit beside the great and legendary Ustad Zakir Hussain Ji ... this could have been a justice if Pandit Aninda Chatterjee was invited in that show.

[@Rajaram-mr5bliss]

"Observe and absorb, be a part of the conversation by listening" - Great !

[@rajkamal5342]

Nasreen, in between this very polite and highly motivated conversation you uttered a very heartening sentence, "Here in this audience are present the writers & artists as it is a literary festival". Sorry Nasreen, you let down the audiences like me who don't know much about these Fine Arts but listen such Maestros not from ears but by Soul. I heard Ustad Ji at Nehru Park, New Delhi with Pt Shiv Kumar Sharma. Believe me I was spellbound with tears in my eyes. So don't suggest that only literary crowd joins these elite audiences.

[@dhawaldeota2591]

India and the world are lucky to have him.

[@shameemakhtar1375]

I learn about life everytime you speak, and live life everytime I hear you play the Tabla.

[@vishwasparanjape6427]

[@junebhattacharjee9669]

I had the privilege to watch one of his concerts ,a legendary artist a man with a secular heart a great human being. l remember one of his sweet adv on TV as Baah! Taj lots of regards to the iconic artist of all times.🙏 Jai Maa Swaraswati 🙏

[@DwijayBane]

Such playful approach towards life and he brings such joy to be in his presence, i always enjoy the way he connects to everyone through his music through his words.. Thank you so much Ustadji !!

[@flowers2]

Our leaders can learn from zakir ji how to live in harmony with yourself and others. Life is about uniting not dividing.

[@indronilrc]

What an incredible person Ustadji is !!

[@PamalkaKarunanayake]

Wah wah... bickram dada... zakir ji... what great stories ❤️❤️❤️

[@dggarud]

A huge amount of precious information about tabla accompaniment....every tabla player must imbibe to become a more rounded artist.....Thanks a lot for uploading

[@inamkhan-pb1mv]

Besides a great Maestro, he seems to be nice a gentleman with fine education, well studied and well read. He can talk about anything. Look at his vast knowledge and experience from almost every single layer of the society. He is so natural and humble. Great.

[@soumenb22]

One of the best interviews of Zakir, there are plenty in you tube but some information is quite unique here. Other panelists are also excellent , specially I got to know Vikram Ghosh well here. I could not realize how one hour seven minutes gone

[@deepakk5634]

Bikram ghosh

[@Prof_Hazra_IIT]

In case you have missed another gem, here goes: Pandit Anindo Chatterjee says Ustad Zakir Hussain is the greatest tabla player of the century in this clip. (Pandit ji uses Bengali though): kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWXVe3uAZ8yGfMk

[@wajahatlatif7961]

What a brilliant man, Zakir Husain. He is so modern and yet so classical! Only a genius can carry that and yet continue on his journey of creativity. It is a sheer joy to listen to him play the tabla; but what a pleasure to listen to him talk! Bravo Zakir! Live long.
