  7. My dear Sarangi,

    i remember when my brother, your dad, taimy , discussed bringing you into the world. How excited he was! how happy we were! you have no idea how much you are loved and how much has been sacrificed for you! stay blessed and keep growing! It has taken the effort and dedication of a lifetime to make this possible!

  12. BUNDUKHAN LIFE (URDU SCRIPT) – Some of the pages showing life of the ultimate in Sarangi playing late U. Bundukhan.This was a generous gift from a good friend long back. Thought of sharing it with the real bundukhan lovers. Unfortunately it is written in Urdu language, so help will be required from urdu knowing friends. My urdu knowledge at present it below average so not able to translate it. I have been told that it is very old style of urdu not very much in current use.
