The very quiescence and passivity of the spiritual man under violence and aggression awakens the tremendous forces of the world to a retributive action;

1. The passing away of #PanditShivKumarSharma marks the end of an era.
A trailblazing pioneer, he was believed to be the first musician to have played Indian classical music on the santoor. He was also honoured with the Padma Vibhushan.
Saddened to hear about the passing away of Santoor maestro Shiv Kumar Sharma. His contribution to music is unparalleled not just as a classical performer but also to Bollywood as one half of the Shiv-Hari duo that gave us memorable songs.
Shiv-Hari may not have been as prolific, but, then, they have been focusing more on their stellar careers as two of #India’s finest instrumental musicians. One half of it, the santoor maestro #ShivkumarSharma, died in #Mumbai of cardiac arrest aged 84.

#RIPShivKumarSharma
Sad to hear about the passing of Padma Vibhushan Pt. Shiv Kumar Sharma. In him, music has lost a maestro who helped popularise the Santoor world over.
My heartfelt condolences to his family and legion of admirers.
Sad to know about the demise of Pandit Shiv Kumar Sharma, eminent Santoor player and internationally celebrated Indian music composer. His departure impoverishes our cultural world. My deepest condolences.
I’m in shock, we’ve lost legendary Santoor player Pandit Shiv Kumar Sharma. He made his instrument what it is today. He was, of the Indian music fraternity, the kindest, the most diplomatic, the most gracious. The world is poorer without him. Thinking of his family at this time
Had the honour of not just meeting Padma Vibhushan Pandit Shiv Kumar Sharma ji but also capturing this moment for a lifetime through my lens.
As calm in his demeanour as his soothing music, Pandit ji was truly a legend.
May the maestro Rest In Peace 🙏🏻 Om Shanti
