For decades, the first weekend of December in Pune was marked by the unforgettable concerts of Ustad Zakir Hussain — evenings filled with rhythm, devotion, and pure musical brilliance. This year, the legacy continues with the inaugural Ustad Zakir Hussain Sangeet Mahotsav, a two-day celebration dedicated to the maestro who redefined the language of percussion.

The festival brings together some of India’s most acclaimed classical musicians for two evenings of soulful performances, honoring Ustadji’s enduring contribution to music and culture.

Join us at Ganesh Kala Krida Manch for two unforgettable evenings celebrating the rhythm, melody, and timeless artistry of Ustad Zakir Hussain.
