Ayaan had posted on social media a photograph of the way the instrument had been kept. However, he deleted it later. "I deleted it as they (airline) sent an apology"


Popular sarod player Ayaan Ali Bangash is upset at the manhandling of instruments by airlines. The artiste was taking a flight from Pune to Delhi on Friday. He had mentioned his sarod as a fragile item. However, he saw it being transported "upside down". Ayaan, son of sarod exponent Amjad Ali Khan, told IANS: "I was in Pune for an event last evening and took the morning flight to Delhi. I had clearly stated as always at the check-in counter that my sarod is a fragile item and needs special handling.
