Talk:Santoor

message: Santoor has nothing Semitic in it. It is an Aryan instrument indigenous to Aryan Kashmir and Aryan Iran. Sadly one of the greatest Santoor players ever Pandit Bhajan Sopori passed away. He was a great musician and a great human-being proud of his pure Aryan lineage.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:7000:E300:8F00:D9BA:C2E2:6629:C246 (talk) 17:08, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
