Dear Subhranil Bhai, I love your foot-prints, whether on youtube or blogger. i'm also mad about Etawah and Indore musicians (mainly Ustad Shahidbhai and AHJ Khansahib amongst living). in course of my study on 'musical DNA', which covers both descendants and shagirds, your writings have provided great insight. my site is indrayanikaathi.com
