The music of nature became silent! Famous Santoor player Pandit Shiv Kumar Sharma is no more

Renowned popular Indian musician and santoor player Pandit Shiv Kumar Sharma has passed away. Indian music got international recognition due to his special style.

Pandit Shiv Kumar Sharma had an important contribution in the entertainment world as well. In Bollywood, the pair of ‘Shiv-Hari’ (Shiv Kumar Sharma and Hari Prasad Chaurasia) composed music for many hit songs. The song ‘Mere Haathon Mein Nau Nau Chudiyan’ from the movie Chandni which was picturized on Sridevi was composed by the hit pair.

Durga Jasraj expressed grief:- Due to the death of Pandit Shiv Kumar Sharma, there has been mourning in the entertainment world, saddened by his demise, producer and actress Durga Jasraj expressed grief over the loss and said that the music of nature has become silent. After Bapuji Pandit Jasraj ji, now the sudden departure of Shiv Chachaji is a double and everything shattering moment for me.

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. pic.twitter.com/qWkxtIWyA8
