India, April 30 -- Pandit Ronu Majumdar was honoured with the Padma Shri on Monday. "It (the honour) means the world to me. I dedicate it to my mother's tears, Bharat Ratna Ravi Shankar ji, my guru Pandit Vijay Raghav Rao (late flautist) and my first guru and father, Bhanu Majumdar ji. With this honour, I feel my responsibilities towards my craft and the flute have grown. My goal is to establish the flute across the world, just like the tabla and the sitar," says the musician. Sharing anecdotes from the ceremony held in Delhi, he adds, "Receiving the Padma Shri title from President Droupadi Murmu jiwas a divine feeling. This was my third visit to the Rashtrapati Bhawan. It was also a great honour to meet Prime Minister Narendra (Modi) bhai. There was a VIP dinner planned after the ceremony, but it was cancelled in wake of the recent Pahalgam attack. I dedicate my Padma Shri to the families of the people who lost their lives in Kashmir."...
