"Staunch Muslims have opposed my decision," he said. "They did not realise we were never converted to Islam. I would like to make it clear that the only religion our family believes in is music," said the 60-something Aasish.

That says it all.

relegion and faith are something very personal. To each their own....let it remain in the family.....we need not even discuss it.

I don't think the family should be torn apart at all. Does any one of us care whether musicians are Hindus or Muslims? I would have appreciated Ust Ali Akbar Khan if he said that music was their real religion, and that his son was free to follow the dictates of his own heart.

Well said...it struck the media attention b/c it is unusual for a Muslim to convert to any other religion. Religion is a personal matter, so the media should not make a big public deal out of this. Ali Akbar's opinion should not be given much credence.
