one of the best way to interview an artist is to allow the artist to express ... which most of the media lacks.. thats why i like this interaction as she was allowed to express her opinion... wonderfully done ..

Every universe is covered by seven layers - earth, water, fire, air, sky, the total energy and false ego - each ten times greater than the previous one. There are innumerable universes besides this one, and although they are unlimitedly large, they move about like atoms in You. Therefore You are called limitless (Bhagavata Purana 6.16.37) Because You are limitless, neither the lords of heaven nor even You Yourself can ever reach the end of Your glories. The countless universes, each enveloped in its shell, are compelled by the wheel of time to wander within You, like particles of dust blowing about in the sky. The śrutis, following their method of eliminating everything separate from the Supreme, become successful by revealing You as their final conclusion (Bhagavata Purana 10.87.41)

This is her life time experience which she could express so beautifully. I thank both the Americans for allowing her to share the facts and struggle behind of becoming an artist of her calibre.

That interview touched me deeply, wanted it to go on forever, heart became so heavy with the purity of thoughts that I just wanted to sit still for a moment and let it soak in, thank you OSR.

To be very honest this is not feel like an interview.. it's feel like a teacher teaching her two students about music and spirituality 😂 but in any case this is sooo awesome ❤❤

She is our National treasure..So articulate and humble, and with such command over her music.. but, we need to thank her father Pandit Ajoy Chakraborthy for training her and preserving the legacy of the Patiala Gharana for future generations..thank you to you both for this awesome interview...

I have been away from India for 30 years...but India cannot be taken away from me. I have no musical talents other than singing in the shower, but I used to listen and watch Indian classical music on Doordarshan, almost had to force myself to do it, since I had no understanding, but just the sense that what I was hearing was the result of centuries of evolution of human artistry. Kaushikiji makes a very valid point when she says that people like Rick and Korbin being much more relatable to the present generation are doing a great service to Indians and to the world by venturing into Indian culture with the curiosity of a child, totally unknowing but discovering a hidden treasure that when shown to the world can only produce harmony and peace and love. And yes, I will be there to watch when Kaushikiji visits UCLA. Thanks a lot, all three of you.

Her explanation sounds so perfect. Students who will train under her will be lucky.

Best interview. Everyone had their space and time to express without interruptions. Many Congratulations

This is an iconic moment in the history and growth of OSR. She is a supreme musician. Thank you Rick and Korbin for patiently listening, for respecting, for allowing her to express and articulate herself so very beautifully. She is a pride of India, still so underrated for her extraordinary capabilities as a singer. Thank you so much for this.

One of the best videos to emerge from your channel. Keep up the good work. God bless you!

Hey, I'm a Carnatic musician here. I would like to state that not everything in Carnatic music is structured. There is a creative space in Carnatic music as well! It's not like Carnatic music is so structured and rigid. When she said that Carnatic music is structured, she meant that there are more scales and compositions. She didn't mean to say that Carnatic music doesn't have creative part. In fact, in a Carnatic music concert, the most important piece is the one with creativity. Hindustani style is much liberation in terms of how things are rendered. For example: In a Hindustani composition, a singer can change the scale, change or ignore lyrics. But in a Carnatic performance, you cannot change the lyrics or emotions set by the composer. But, you can do the creative part after you singing the composition once, and then change the way you sing. This is done because in Carnatic music, we have a principle that we should not dilute the emotions and lyrics of the composer. So we sing the composition completely, and then we improvise. That's what she meant by saying it's structured. Cheers!!

Music in India has always be been about the divine, hindustani or Carnatic. But in the case of Hindustani, it's later patrons were islamic rulers. It was just a form of non spiritual entertainment for them. IMHO, This is why it allows a lot of Liberty to change the lyrics as we please etc. OTOH, Carnatic music is still rooted in its olden values of spirituality. Hence considered slightly more rigid. But not wrong.

It was not an interview. It's the lesson. She deserves to be known as the "Pandit". Needs to have certain knowledge to fully understand her deliberation. Great intellectual individual. An asset to the music arena.
