Anyone remember that India at 20 video shot in 1967? 56 years ago a couple of Indian youngsters had said that their diol is Zubin Mehta. Blows my mind that the man is till performing all these years later
We have to bring back sanity in our country. Gosh!! We need our kids to evolve and not simmer in hatred for anything or anyone that differs from us. Seriously, this makes me cry to see what we are devolving into!!!!!
Wonderful!! Brilliant atmosphere is created by such talented musicians!! Long live such brilliance and talent!! Salute to the Great Maestro ZUBIN MEHTA!!!!!
Wow WHAT A PERFORMANCE !!!! this is the spirit of India. Well done performers., And wire for providing us this incredible performance. Thank you Mr Mehta for bringing alive the time in Bombay that cannot be found now.
As a viewer of Mr. Karan, I was waiting for the interview to begin soon after Mr. Karan's Pre-interview clip which we see in all his interviews (where he talks about subscribing etc and his journey of interviewing people from various fields). And soon after getting on the highway for a 54 Kms drive one way, I began the video on my car screen. To my surprise there were young children playing so beautifully for a good length of the total video (I am music teacher). Had heard Mr. Zubin's name but never paid much attention to his works. I will do so now. I appreciate Karan trying to keep the elderly Mr. Zubin occupied in the interview with questions. The introduction by Karan was also nice. It was nice to hear the stories that Mr. Zubin had to tell. I loved to hear how he had class mates from so many religions and never felt anything different. This touched me. I grew in a Catholic dominated village, practicing a bit different form of Christianity. I studied in a catholic school with 10-15 out of the total 200-300 (don't remember the exact number from 1993-2001) students were Hindus and Muslims and the rest were Catholics and myself a Christian. One Friday of the month we used to attend a service at the church next to our school and I think it was followed in all schools in my state that were part of the village church. Our principal was the Priest of the church and headmaster could be anyone-Hindu or Christian. Our Hindu and Muslim students attended the service with love and respect (or let's say they attended as innocents). My Catholic teachers were a bit mad at me because I followed Christianity in a bit different way. They did insult me also. But nothing was said to my Hindu and Muslim school mates. I took part in the church readings also and singing. None of them were forced to follow Christianity. The bond in the village was so great that though there were few Hindu families in the village, they made such beautiful difference when it came to Ganesh Chaturthi and Diwali or Rakshabandan etc. We were united. We never felt different. My first friend was a Hindu. Growing up in my late teens and early 20s I made best friends with many Hindu classmates and college boys and Muslims too. The bond was friendship. They bowed down to every Cross and Chapel and church. And I used to wait for the 'prashad' outside the temple when the Hindu friends went for a quick visit to a small temple. Their festivals were complete only when Christians and Muslim friends came and ate. And so was for our Muslim friends on Eid. I admit that I did not go and bow down to any Hindu gods but these boys did. Hinduism is so tolerant and respects all other religions. They do not mind bowing to any other deity or religious figure. I respected my Hindu friends by avoiding beef when we were having snacks or eating in restaurants. Ohhh….those days… 19 years back…I made more Hindu and Muslim friends than Christians. But I really feel and see so much difference since 2014. We feel hurt and offended by so many things now. The concern of Mr. Zubin for his Muslim friend is a concern for many in India. But good Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Sikhs, Jains, Buddhist and others will always do everything to keep the beauty of 'Unity in Diversity' in our beautiful country.

Zubin Mehta shouldn't have sat with this man (gentle?) for interview. The rough-shod was trying to corner the gentleman, and got thrown off in the end!
I wish there was more interaction on music and his career. If it is not Mr Thapar’s forte, there should be someone who can take on the task. Increasingly, we seem to be running out of time. Zubin Mehta is a remarkable musician but he looks old and frail. His music making in Israel and Vienna has been remarkable as was his early maturity in Los Angeles. His Mahler has been rightly praised to the skies along with his wonderful recordings of Italian opera. While, his recordings of core German repertoire has not been distinctive, he is one of best accompanists ever. He said he has never done Parsifal…he has not done many cycles of symphonies either. No Mahler cycle on record, no Bruckner. A much underrated Tchaikovsky cycle in Los Angeles on Decca. Some wonderful Dvorak recordings which have left us lamenting the lack of at least a mini cycle of the mature Dvorak symphonies. His Brahms recordings in New York and Israel have not stood the test of time though they continue to communicate with great warmth if not with sufficient bite. He is a great conductor of much of the Romantic repertoire. I pray that he has a long Indian summer ahead.
In 1967, Zubin took the Los Angeles Philharmonic and Andre Watts to Tehran, Iran for two concerts. I was able to finagle a ticket to the second concert. The ticket was given to me at the gate by a Russian mother and daughter who had an extra one due to the father's illness that night. The young girl and I exchanged many many smiles during the concert at the end of which I couldn't decide whether I had fallen in love with the girl or the music. I never saw the girl again but nourished the love for classical music and have loved and enjoyed it ever since. That was 56 years ago. Thank you maestro.
Parsees better not forget that they were persecuted and driven out from Iran…and are embraced by India..Good to..move on..don’t make comments like 2014…etc..mindset has to change..
Mr. Zubin Mehta one of the first indian conductors, married to hollywood bombshell of those times Nancy Kovack, seems like old man had a game in his younger days LOL
Karan you are just simply amazing! I have seen Orpah's and David Letterman's shows but no one measures up to your stature. You exude aristocracy with your speech and dressing, but its your charisma that wins hearts. Lots of good wishes and respect from Karachi, Pakistan.
Such a delightful conversation with one of my favourite person -, Zubin Mehta. The children's orchestra gives us hope and Karan, you are very brave! Thank you!
The tragedy of development in Bombay. It is completely changed for the worse, South Bombay used to be so beautiful, its unbelievable what has happened to the city!
A tribute to Karan In era of crucifying politicians where being rude is called HONEST journalism n abusing interviewee is awarded bravery kind global best reporter awards .. Politeness still intact in you ...is relief ...cz only politeness is permanent n legendary worth learning from
Zubin's father Mehli was my mother's piano teacher. I still have the sheet music with his annotations. But I'm willing to bet that half of the audience at this interview doesn't know anything (at least not anything meaningful) about western classical music and are there only to be seen. And some of them are there to eat it seems, because you can hear the cutlery.
Karan you got the reply, churches are burning in Pakistan. Straight bat from Zubin ji. Karan enough of intimidation. He gave nice reply. You all have opinions......superb sir. Karan even Muslims are happily living at large. Dont forget sir tan se Juda episode.....hate is not started by only hindus.
I do hope you heard him talk about Israel too. 😂 extremist government in Pakistan, India and Israel. We have leaders who consistently oppress the poor, the marginalised and the minorities. Karan Thapar asked the right questions. As citizens, we should do the same.
Yogananda, Sadhguru, Master, Zubin Mehta, mudras and mantras - just some of the reasons that make me adore India and say that it is the land that gave humanity, the greatest blessing, and for that, my eternal gratitude!! a book, with the Master's l, Zubin Mehta dedication, would be, for me, the only fortune I would save if my house were to burn down. Please make my dream possible!...!
Karan I thank you for getting My Idol and the larger than life Persona of Zubin Mehta on your show Conductor Par Excellence to me second to none I have been tracking him for ages his performances and even his unique approach of rarely using the score Most his pride to be an Indian first and a Bombay Denizen Conducting Wagner in Forbidden Territory Where he still holds an Indian Passport I used to Quote the same as an ordinary Citizen when asked did I ever felt the need to do so With Using him saying Check Zubin Mehta
Thank you for conducting this interview publicly with your tenacity and unabashedness in taking a stand against what is wrong and immoral This represents the state we are in right now when it is clearly not considered impolite to try to interrupt and insult an interviewer and the interviewee from having an open conversation about the dire political situation facing us everyday in our country. I commend you for going the opposite way from TOI and other media outlets. Shame on those who are not ready to acknowledge and are happy at keeping such serious and important discussions at bay
Initially I could not understand the context of bringing in 2014 while interviewing Maestro Zubin Mehta. It was only later on that it dawned on me that it was the biased Karan Thapar and his agency, The Wire who were conducting the interview. Sad that he tried to draw the musical genius into the world of murky politics. Shame on you Karn Thapar.
Karan Thapar put in every effort to make a very blessed musician fall into a biased trap. Zubin Mehta, thankfully asked him back: “Is India going through bad times?” and closed it with “You all have opinions here. Let us end with the opinions”. We could hear audience say “No politics”. Is editorial independence being vitriolic and vitiating?
Quite shameful to use this interview to try to draw Mr Zubin Mehta to express an opinion on the political state of India. And not enough on his music... his concerts... And Karan loves to hear the sound of his own voice and doesn't give the person being interviewed a chance to express his opinions. Finally, he got caught out with many inaccuracies as he was relying on the biography of Mr Mehta without verifying the facts. Last interview of Mr Karan Thapar that I am going to watch. And for the record, I'm not a fan of any political party in India.
Great, principled man. Asking for everyone to live in harmony has nothing to do with appeasement. It's how it's been for centuries in India. It's how it should remain. United as one people under one flag. Out of many, we are one.
Superb interview as usual Karan.Seeing these amazing kids presenting outstanding music gives rays of hope for the youth of this country.There are tremendous opportunities for mental and overall growth if one decides to pursue creative arts in addition to traditional studies.
Thanks Mr. Thapar for, as a Journalist, for putting forth the scenario that looms over this Nation at this present. I'd rather, that the Political Climate itself took a 360* rotation...The uneducated and those in trouble with the Law have no right to be in governance at any level.....Would take PRAYER to claim such a tall order after 75 years of normalizing the unbecoming!
True to your rabidly anti Hindu pathology and your best efforts to entice Mr Mehta it is refreshing to see that he didn't fall prey to your tirade. Refer 57.33
Dear people in the comments troubled by the alleged political tenor of the interview, understand that zubin Mehta in his answers is bringing to you an image of India, of Bombay, of people which the present government is actively whitewashing. Its a slice of history the curent dispensation is proactively obliterating and so Thapar's questions, even with their political tenor, are germane to this discussion. If you like this conversation, I suggest deep down you also aspire for arts beyond boundaries of all kinds (doesn't matter how many Indians are there in Mehta's orchestra).Embrace that side of yourself for your benefit and for ours and for this great country
Mr mehta contribution to Indian Philharmonic orchestra could be highlighted hi contribution to the next generation who then will be the next zubin mehta
At around 38-39 minutes, we hear about Mehta's father's violin rendition of a violin composition (by a Jewish refugee in India named Walter Kauffman) that was a signature tune on All India Radio. Both interviewer and interviewee gush about it. But we never get to hear the tune-just prolonged boring monologues. Please get with it, K.T.T.W.!
Sure, Karan it's always enjoyable and edifying inspite of the difficult tragedies the people you bring to us face. At least you are keeping the walking dead alive.Thanks for the resserrection to many!

I feel sad for such elderly people who had seen happy times growing in India and now forced to watch a different homeland altogether.
Nonsense
We have to bring back sanity in our country. Gosh!! We need our kids to evolve and not simmer in hatred for anything or anyone that differs from us. Seriously, this makes me cry to see what we are devolving into!!!!!
Yes we all need to Convert!! Not resist any attacks from minorities while celebrating festivals!!!
Its a treat to watch this amazing performance!
Wonderful!! Brilliant atmosphere is created by such talented musicians!! Long live such brilliance and talent!! Salute to the Great Maestro ZUBIN MEHTA!!!!!
Wow WHAT A PERFORMANCE !!!! this is the spirit of India. Well done performers., And wire for providing us this incredible performance. Thank you Mr Mehta for bringing alive the time in Bombay that cannot be found now.
Nice to see you Karan…not angry …for a change smiling and laughing throughout the interview…
He is never "angry". He's eager and intense, sometimes he's hectoring and insistent, but that's not the same thing as angry. Upgrade your vocabulary.

An interview handled so welll by Mr.Karan Thapar ! Hats off to the Pride of India, Mr. Zubin Mehta !!!!

Not one of Thapar's finest interviews. Missed a great opportunity to ask Mehta about the state and future of Western classical music in India.
Am just seeing how beutiful and talented these girls are
Wow , enjoyed the whole program!👍👏
Great interview, Mr Thapar. It was a pleasure to see the entire video. Thank you.
Thanks, Karan Thapar, for the interview. Have been following SOI for the past many years. Wish I was in Mumbai on 19th Aug.

Such an incredible gentleman! Respect.
Thanks
Many thanks!
Nostalgia....finally someone non political....thanks 😊
Thanks for reminding the real India.
Jubin's hope that his Muslim friends in India will live in peace is great and it will come true soon God Willing.

Insane opening sequence

Both interviewer and interviewee gush about it. But we never get to hear the tune-just prolonged boring monologues. Please get with it, K.T.T.W.!
🙏🙏🙏
Can I be honest I just got lost in the music too much to concentrate on the conversation,,Brava younglings.

AIR still plays in many indian homes at dawn so most know the tune
It only took 23 minutes and 25 seconds to actually get into "The Interview". But thanks anyway.
Karan Thapar is very competent and grateful journalist in India
Karan Thapar has an unpleasant voice with lands to talk important people with questions liked by good number of people.
