Yesterday at Delhi’s Kamani Auditorium, hearing Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia’s flute left me heartbroken. He can no longer truly play. His hands tremble; the flute will not stay steady. He blows into it with immense effort, yet no music emerges. The blame lies with the organizers. It was cruel to subject him to such physical and emotional pain. Panditji must have suffered—struggling to blow, to hold the flute, and to hear its faltering sound. The audience too shared his agony, watching his helplessness. If they felt compelled to bring him before the public, they should have seated him on a beautifully adorned stage while those soul-stirring recordings of his flute played in the background. The audience would have been enchanted by the music and moved by the sight of its creator. When I met him only a few months ago, he spoke with such grace and warmth. And just a few years earlier, on this very stage at Kamani, he performed alongside Shivkumar Sharma—a concert of sheer perfection. Ah, how cruel the weight of age can be.

After that, Dipu Das was hung from a tree and beaten like this. The frenzied jihadists kept shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’ as they did so. Content warning: graphic violence

Jihadi rally. It is not Raqqah, it is Dhaka. Unfortunately.
