He did his last performance just a few weeks before he died and I believe she was the reason he was able to be as healthy and strong as he was. I am eternally grateful to her for that.

When I watched him play what moved me was this incredible meditative state where he could take people," she added.Anoushka signed off with an anecdote about how Pt Ravi Shankar once forgot his Grammy at a friends place and couldn't find it. His wife Sukanya called up the Recording Academy to find out if they could make a copy and was asked which one she wanted a copy of."She said 'What do you mean which Grammy?'. It turns out he had won two and just didn't know it. That was the kind of musician he was. He went on to win a third, and today he gets this incredible honour. Music was the be all and end all of his life and I am very grateful to the Academy for recognising that," she said.Three-time Grammy winner Pt Ravi Shankar is credited with introducing Indian classical music to the West.
