The Warmth Merchant


Still from the film 'Heat and Dust' (1983)
Directed by James Ivory who also played the tanpura for the score, along with Zakir Hussain's tabla.

Rhythm is part of us from the time we're in our mother's womb. The heart is pumping, there is a pulse, so we respond to that... The tempos of the songs that have become hits are the tempos that either you walk in, you breathe in, or you make love in...
-Zakir Hussain
