The percussionist, who plays kanjira and ghatam, was in the winning team of McLaughlin, Hussain, vocalist Shankar Mahadevan and violinist Ganesh Rajagopalan. He narrated a mythological story to describe his involvement in creating “This Moment”, which recently won the Grammy in the best global music album category. Shakti, founded in 1973, has undergone several changes with new members joining over the years.

“I follow in their footsteps because they never expect anything, they just give their 100 per cent to music. They just work. And after 50 years of this band, it was considered the best global music album. So that goes to the founders, that's their property, their treasure. We are all just add-ons,” he said. The musician will be presenting the “Ghatam Symphony” at the Prestige Srihari Khoday Centre for Performing Arts.
