Nikhil Banerjee|His sitar playing was out of this world. He created a beautiful, unusual style that was all his own.

Ravi Shankar|He’s not my ultimate favourite, but no one can deny what he has done for Indian music in the world market. Fantastic, in one word.

Shujat Khan|His contemporary sitar-playing may not be at the same level as that of Vilayat Khan, his father, but something about his playing goes straight to my heart. I think we speak the same language.

Hariprasad Chaurasia|What always grabs me about him is not just that he is a virtuoso player, but he has the skill to make silences a part of his music. The gap in the tune is as important as the notes. Building on that silence is real mastery.

Zakir Hussain|He is not a clerk who just practises traditional playing. He has mastered the traditional, translated it to the contemporary and opened it up to the world. He’s done wonderful things for Indian music.
