Kishori Amonkar: Ace classical vocalist who never talked 'Music' to strangers

Kishori Amonkar loved to confine herself within the limits of her daily chorus, particularly the Riyaz and teaching her few selected students. She didn’t like to give interviews and mostly been a non-receiver to media. She always considered interacting with media as a ‘waste of time’ “because they take away important minutes from her daily Riyaz and teaching”. My many media friends tried to seek an appointment with her but she never talked to them about her music. She was of the opinion that music is not the subject which should be talked with strangers.
