Esraj, My Dearest Instrument

Today we are observing the 27th anniversary of my playing the esraj. I started my musical career with the esraj. Then I started playing all my other instruments. My dear, dearer, dearest instrument shall forever remain my esraj. My esraj will have no equal. My dearest and fondest instrument is the esraj. If I am a musician, I owe everything to the heart and the soul of my esraj.
