Zakhir Hussain Ji will be missed so badly! Great human being! Blessed by Goddess Saraswati and embodiment of humility! So generous hearted, always sharing the stage with so many junior artists, giving them all equal opportunity, letting them shine! I have been fortunate enough to watch him create his magic every April, for the past 15 yrs in Princeton, NJ. Bought my ticket for his upcoming concert in April 2025, 3 months ago. He has left behind a huge legacy and will always live in our hearts through his art!
Sorely missed but will be alive forever in his legacy. I had the privilege of going to a few of his concerts and deeply admired the way he could be part of an ensemble and recede to the side so the main artist could shine… In one, he refused to do a solo since he was accompanying Suresh Wadkar such a rare breed😥🙏🏼
To describe him in one word is “ the greatest gift by God to mankind through music” Having had personal experiences in the 80’s and 90’s in the US with him, Shivaji and Hari Prasadji all I can say that he is one of a kind and he is incomparable.
I had the honor of shaking hands with the Ustad in 1987 in Pittsburgh. Will miss you Zakir Bhai until my last breath. Rest at the feet of Ma Saraswati!
I watched him petform with Pt Shiv Kumar Sharma at Kamani Auditorium in 1995. We didn't get seats so sat at the wings. May Goddess Saraswati bless his soul even in his afterlife journey. Om Shanti 🙏 🌺
Just can’t believe he is gone , he was my favourite artist. I never ever missed his concerts in dubai since 25 years .What a great performer ! What a great Soul May his soul RIP . Forever I will miss him .
I can never forget his curly hair being waving when he played his tabla. By chance my son has similar hair and when as a child he was taken for a cut, his hair dresser always called him Ustad Zakir Hossain. Om Shanti: 🙏
GOD BLESS HIS SOUL REST IN PEACE -- EVERY LATE NIGHT I LISTENED HIM SINCE MY CHILDHOOD - HE IS THE REMAINING PERSON EVER IN MY LIFE EVERY MT KAILASH YATRA HE HAS BEEN WITH MY SOUL ALONG WITH ME I HAVE MANY CASSETTES WHICH I HAVE PRESERVED BOUGHT IN MY LIFE --
One of the funny jokes he shared in public in Carnegie hall with Pt. Ravi Shankarji , while pandit ji was tuning the sitar which took a while because of acoustic issues, and the audience was patiently waiting, he took the mike and addressed the audience and said” In Chinese this is called Tu-Ning
A big shock for the Music as whole whether it is Hindusthani or Carnatic or Bajan or film music. No amount of words can describe his talent, so much is he . He should have been in India even if he was not well. India provides expertise in wings of health.
Very sad news🥲 Great tabla player..great Human being, son of great tabla player Ust. Allah Rakha (choice accompanist of Pt Ravi Shankar). Om Shanti Shanti Shanti🙏
To God we return. May Allah bless his soul and rest his soul in peace . A maestro has passed . It has saddened us all But as this what life is. The son o Great Allah Rakha made a great place in hearts of people. I express my condolence to his family.

I can fully endorse all what you had said about the Zakir Hussain.

A smile he carried and spread like perfume, all will fall for him. We lost a Kohinoor forever.
Rip maestro ❤ you are immortal through your art ❤ with all respects from an algerian ❤❤❤
We lost a great legend. He left us too early!
I can't believe that he is not with us. Will miss you always.

The omnipresent fragrance of the maestro!

We love you and your Art.
Wherever You are, GOD has to be there too.

The interviewer should learn to first finish with all the guests before coming back to shankar relentlessly.
Zakir Hussain's magic lives on
Just can’t believe he is gone , he was my favourite artist. I never ever missed his concerts in dubai since 25 years .What a great performer ! What a great Soul May his soul RIP . Forever I will miss him .

He should be awarded the Bharat Ratna by the Bharat Sarkar
May ALLAH SWT bless him with Zannatul Ferdous Ameen.

Apart from being a legendary tabla player, having pure mind is what makes him a class by himself.
