A Man who belongs to Muslim religion married a Christian woman is talking about Hindu Gods in a Foreign Country. Hats off to Legendary Sir Zakir!
THAT IS THE SPIRIT OF INDIAN SIR
a man who belongs to music married a woman who he loves and talking about his culture .
This is called indian baby
@@lordzeus8984 yes baby
But still Bhakts be like- Mandir wahi banayenge 🚩
He is an example to all the people who fights in the name of religion. Take it easy guys. He is the face of India. Great man
Was blessed to attend his concert today in Folsom, California. It was a sublime experience! At 73, he is a human incarnation of music. Brings so much life to Tabala making it a spiritual experience. Hope to see him being awarded the Bharat Ratna, a real gem of India and of the world.
What a refreshingly witty and humble person! Apart from being a virtuoso.
Totally agree with you Valeria
Zakir is one of my favorite people of all time. A class act, amazing musician and a humble guy. I've had the pleasure to see him twice and hope for more.
I have seen ana heard Zakirji with L. Shankar three times. Met him at his lessons in Berkeley. Where we went for coffee. The two of us were at the tabla at one point. He asked me what I was getting. So great.
I have been friends with a friend of his and we went to his headquarters in Marin. My friend was taking some of his percussion instruments. Zakir said to me, he's taking all of my toys!
I have seen him numerous times with different people.
Always a transcendent experience.
So blissful.
Thank you Zakir 🕉 gratitude 🙏 💖
Everyone need to emulate Ustad ji as a world citizen.
He spoke so eloquently and passionately! One of the best interviews I've watched. Filled with wisdom!
Gasping for air as he shared the story of his father. Simply a brilliant way to raise a future master.
We need more like this gentleman in this world. So humble, uncorrupted by religion BS. Love you sir. I was born in late 80s and I still remember watching him on DD1. God bless you sir🙏
Yes the bs is getting heavy, pffff... creativity, artists.....good to see that some people can rise above and bring joy.
Heard him live last night (27 Nov 2018) at Indian Embassy, Kathmandu. At 67, he still rocks!
All of us know Zakir Bhai is a genius and an excellent role model for how to be a great human being.
I want to share my thoughts about Vinod, who has done this interview. Vinod, you have been a fabulous anchor. You have never interrupted Zakir Bhai. Your body language (and there by your intent and humbleness) depicted your interest in listening rather than leaving your mark. I wish all interviews, especially when done with maestros like Zakir Bhai, follow your way.
i AM BIG FAN OF HIM. I AM FROM PAKISTAN.
Doesn't matter where from you. kindly come out from boundary lines which are made by bad humans. Just imagin earth without boundary line.
@@swapnilsangle haha are you Indian ??
@@jabaazklr9266 no re from mars.
Love you tooo❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
What a legend for Indian classical music. Fortunate to attend his concert . A bucket list :-)
I would attend every single one of his concerts if I could
He's a delightful story teller besides being a great musician

Ustad Zakir Hussain saab is a breathe of fresh air to hear and such a graceful speaker. With the touch of wittiness.
And the person interviewing did a great job and a great listener and didn’t intrupted the guest even once.
Beautiful
The “Wah Taj” campaign with Ustad Zakir Hussain not only engraved Taj Mahal tea on the popular imagination, it also helped the tabla to make its star space in the popular imagination
The Legend, Ustaad ji is God's gift to our country and the world of music. I have had the privilege of listening to him perform live on several occasions. He is the epitome of perfection, embodiment of humility and an excellent human being.
A complete man of many talents. He possesses a well trained musical voice too. A gift to the whole world!
Amazing personality. Thank you Google for inviting him in the talk. Lots of Love! :D
I still drink Taj Mahal Tea only because of Zakir Hussain ! Aree waha Taj boleye :)
😅
Wo rahul sharma hai bhai
And recently I came to know that he is a coffee person! My whole life feels like a lie now!!
@@dreamysap I even read your comment on Stupid reaction channel.... 😂 😂
@@beactivebehappy9894 I love listening to Zakir Hussain talk as much as his tabla. But wow you remember the YT comments that too across channels?!!
Anyway ngl him picking coffee over tea makes this whole World wrong!!! Him saying wah Taj is iconic
lovely to see anchor referring to Zakir sir as Ustadji
There's some calmness about his personality and thought process. Crystal clear opinions the way he spoke about RUclips and it's benefits. Well connected with technology. Wow just wow!
Wow! One of the best interview I ever watched!
What a legend! The wisdom!!!
what a man! just love him... music is in his heart and soul!
Thank u Google for giving an opportunity to listen to the legend for an hour!. This is the best interview I have watched in recent times. Enjoyed his talk!!.
Excellent program, young conductor is very gentlemen and professional ( rare to see such plesent conductong styles)
Gurugi mystro Sakir is a true globle master ,belongs to the whole universe.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼Wish Guruji peace n healthy many more years to serve the world.❤
I recall going to one of his concerts a really long time ago at the Playhouse in Durban, South Africa. I was still in school at the time but I must admit that I enjoyed every single bit of it. Such a superb performance by a legend of Indian Classical Music.
He should totally get a bharat ratna if saif Ali and rekha can get a padma shri
True
Absolutely
Can't do it. He's a Norwegian and not an Indian.
@@guipranav wtf he is indian born and his father was also a tabla maestro . Dont you know ? He now looks a bit white. That doesnt mean he is not Indian.
@@guipranav who said that only Indians can get Bharat Ratna ? Nelson Madela and Khan abdul Gaffarkhan got it.. Zakir Hussain is a gem India has produced.one day He will surely get Bharat Ratna and within his life .. mark my words..
Google did a memorable & remarkable thing of interviewing a person par excellence. He is above all categories of cast creed race & religion, he is above all the person of music for music & by music. May the Divine power give him all the strength to shine forth forever. Great Regards Zakir Jim.
Such a soothing voice he has can listen to him whole day ❤️❤️
I don't know how these 1:09:27 passed.. He is a gem of a person
Respect from 💓 and he is such a delightful story teller who really enjoys every bit of moment expressing his feelings and experiences and sharing some amazing stories of him..
God bless him
5:48 that's the amount of tabla/rhythm a person can acquire in his/her lifetime!
I feel very blessed to listen him in my life...Thank you to almighty that i born in this century😇
I was fortunate enough to enjoy the performance of this great legend live at Dhaka International Classical Music Fest back in 2015

How can somebody dislike Zakir Sahab's video????
Prachit Naik i think they r the fans of dhinchak pooja's interview
Exactly my question.
Perhaps came to this video expecting Zakir to talk about some new technology :)
Google, Thanks a lot for such recommendations.
I am speechless. Thanks again.
Love you zakir ji.
I love you till my last breath.
How sage to present the simple truth that there is NO SUCH THING as some rigid, fixed-eternally-in-sound-and-formalism music, that is it ALWAYS a fusion of influences. In a point-blank blast against the purists, without the slightest compromise of technical competence or artistic integrity.
Those who can not understand should learn HOW to understand this; those who refuse to understand deserve pity, if not derision.
Well said :)
Spot on pal
WOW ; this was a treat! I did not know Zakir Hussain was also such a good singer! He is a true Ustad!
Ustad, he is proud of not only India but also the world.
8:05
Major respect for ustadji. I wish i could meet ppl like him
I usually never see full conversation but this was probably one of the best , there were many things to learn from it..
I'm 29 expat Pakistani in Australia. I have many Indian friends, very good ones, I sent them this video and they are like, respect for you for listening to great Zakir Hussain. One was left awestruck when I told her that, I have been a fan of Ustaadji since I saw him playing Tabla in 'Mile Sur Mera Tumhara'. :')
I heard Zakir a week ago in Bangkok. Jesus doesn't have to come back now.
who was he playing with?
there wasn't a program so I don't know the sarangi players name. the concert was sponsored by a Sikh organization.
Hahahahah LOL
What is meant by that
@@fighterssc5612 it means the concert was heavenly, and jesus no more need to come back and take us to heaven
Wow! I accidently stumbled upon it but stayed willingly ❤ What a gem!
I can't thank u enough for sharing this🙏
Tremendous wisdom from the modern musical sage Ustad Zakir Hussein.
If you possess an analytical mind this was an absolute gem, i've learned more from this master about life through his musical analogies then most self help books.
He's a genius
Watched it from the start to the end. Loved the conversation.
One of the rarest of the rare videos where people aren't fighting in the comments section... And more importantly, no comments that dislike or criticize! All credits to this immensely witty and amazing speaker. What a man!!
Does anyone know of any recordings of what Zakir talks about at 51:30 ? It sounds absolutely amazing to hear Hariji, Sultan khan, Rais Khan and Zakir together WITH an orchestra!! Way back in the 1940's.... wow
search for Roshan Tumhi Se Duniya
Wait... Wasn't Zakir born in 1951??
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parasmani (1963)
Like Locations or monuments, if UN was to declare people as 'World heritage' he would be so on the list...
Thank you Google, delighted listening to Ustadji’s talks! Amazing personality 😊🤩🙏🏽
Great conversation. A lot to learn from Zakir ji. Thank you.
No wonder he is part of the identity of the most populous country on the planet. The deep intellectual conversation with the flavor of wit and humility that goes with the amazingly relaxed body language enticing the audience...all of that while he does not even have tabla to accompany him on stage. Beyond impressive
I enjoyed watching this one hour long video. Thanks Google for this interview. Great man, huge respect for him. ♥️
U r a precious GIFT to this world, thanks for adding more JOY in to the world where many like me/us flourish our life! due to ur graceful life!
Only a genius like him can talk about complicated matters like classical music at the level a layman can understand. And only a musician as learned as him could get Frank Sinatra's cadence perfectly like he did at 58:43 even though that was not his genre. I was fortunate enough to see him and his Dad perform with great masters like Ali Akbar Khan, Vilayat Khan, Shivkumar Sharma and others in the 1980's. Thanks for the memories.
Didn't know he was such a likeable intellect which is icing on an already delectable cake
GURU JI NAMASKAR , SUPERB TALK AND GREAT SUGGETIONS FOR ALL MUSICION AND MUSIC LOVER OF WORLD ,,THANK YOU SO MUCH ,GURU JI AND GOOGEL TEAM,WAITING FOR PART 2
PadmaVibhushan Ustad Maestro Pundit Professor Dr Ustad Zakir Hussain has filled an ocean into a vessel - what we say in Hindi: Gaagar me saagar " ( गागर में सागर ). Universality , respect for all tradition and genre ! I am fortunate to have met his father Alla Rakha in Zagreb, Croatia ( then Yugoslavia) along with Pundit Ravi Shankar who performed there in 1967. Humanity is blessed to have him among us!
"ZAKIR HUSSAIN"...An UNPARALLELED LEGACY IN INDIAN PERFORMING ART......."GLOBALIZING "TABLA".......THANKS "GOOGLE" To HOST The "TALK-SHOW".......
Beautiful interview. I met Ushtadji few times in past. He was down to earth and he could relate to everyone easily. He ha digested Tabla very well. Allarakhaji had the similar qualities. I met him few times also and once I reminded his program in Rajkot many years ago when he was playing in Columbia University. He talked about a small flight from Bombay to Rajkot and that was not steady and very scary. He travelled with Ravishankarji and other musicians. There was a Father and son Tabla concert.
Cont. in Columbia University.
A Gem of India.. !! A timeless global icon!! GRAND SALUTE Ustaad ji !!!
I don't think I've ever seen Zakirji in a suit. LOL.
I couldn't recognize him tbh :D
Me neither, it was a first time, I could not recognise him at all.
he is just so funny! Just some of the moast fun interviews i have herd thanks guys Hello from Sweden Nicki
God of Tabla,never in life I expected that I will hear this level of Tabla,fantastic player !!
This video made my day.. What a personality. Legend!
I wasn't sure of watching the video till the end but I couldn't pause or stop the master talking.
same
Ustad Zakir Hussain ❤️😍🙏
An honor to listen to the Legend!
Very Dear Zakir Hallo.
There is no word that I could use to say how nicely you play Tabla I have been listening you from many many years and have always loved your way of playing . I must admit that your dear father was also a very good player of tabla .
Jasbir MAGON .
The magician of sound
Zakir sahab🙏
What a superior" Free Thinking" Father🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Your art is beautiful so are you and the way you went about it
Masters are truly Masters no doubt- very classic . Classical interview. Great Regards! Namaste.
One of the most interesting people on this planet........its such a pleasure listening to him and off course his music is just divine !!
The most important, he is so frank.. Iam a fan of yours many years before. Thanks for the upload. Intelligence and MAGICAL fingers combined
The greatest of greatest interview I have ever ever ever watched.
omg.. such a rich knowledge of music history. Loved hearing about his views on religion and fusion music. Excellent data and very cool dude.
I grew so much respect for Zakir Sir... You were simply superb.... I would have loved to hear you for hours and hours... You are a true art form - you are a true human... you are beyond religion and borders... Respect you sir so much...
Delightful and knowledgeable raconteur ! Loved this! Thank you !
A true legend. Greatest admiration for Zakir and is always humorous and light hearted. He has transformed Indian classical to large masses in a innovative mode on how the people would love more. That is his Genius.
Great interview. Loved every bit of it.
भारतरत्न उस्ताद झाकीर हुसेन 🙏🙏. We are blessed to witness you in our lifetime 🙏🙏
Thanks to the universe for bringing this in my life today.
Ustadji, Saadar pranaam
What an amazing personality you are Sir.....We are very greatful to hear you. Thanks for enlightening us ...thank you so much...True India...FUSION
Wow! what a great legendary personality he is. There's so much to learn from him not only just classical music. And that line from his father "well... these are my prayers..." it was greatly inspirational.
What an enlightened entity he is...any words trying to box him into mastery of anything is a great disservice to him and Him...he is one with the He....He could be the Para Brahman, Allah or Holy Spirit or Gohonzon or the Enlightened One, know him and he will take you to Him. Thats all I could experience from this discourse....God Bless!!!
My respectful pranams to Ustad Zakir Hussainji. You are our pride. May God bless you with best of health & lots of happiness always.
Oh, What Genius and Greatness in one Being !!!
🙏🏽 Ustad Ji
As we are well awared by Ustad Zakir Hussain's Marvellous personality,.... One of the most revered Musician ,Scholar and amazing individual we have been blessed with......
as relatnships change, socialpower changes +music reflects it. wht is called classical is really class oriented
Such simplicity, a true legend 😊😊
Saw him with legendary upright bass player Rob Wasserman at a tiny little club in new york city,after the ratdog show at the beacon theater ,what a set ,rob opened with, i cant get no satisfaction, as most of the crowd was expecting to see bobby weir pop in for a jam but ,my ride wasnt into it and had to leave half way thru the set ,what a travesty of a memory
Especially glad that he recounted his film music experience as exemplar of "fusion". Around 50 minutes
An epitome of a proper educated, learned man
wonderful talks. So many talks of Zakir I have heard learn and re- learn every times. Major thing of what Zakir has converted from Rhythmic to Melodic instrument
