People have seen him playing on his Esraj in a lonely corner of his home, with tears rolling down his eyes. He never declined to attend any musical soiree, cultural or art exhibition when invited.
When Professor #DhurjatiPrasadMukherjee was writing his book on #Indianmusic, he received several helpful suggestions from his friend Bose.
Mukherjee used to say that if Bose had not been a scientist, he might have become a master musicologist.
