	"So what I do now is I finish the show and I search myself on Instagram to see how people would have cheered had they not had a phone in their hand," he added.

Sarod maestro Amjad Ali Khan has appealed to the Indian government to institute a national prize for music on the lines of Arjuna Award given to sportspersons to foster young talents in classical music.
	Khan said he has written to the President and Home Minister that time has come to support young musicians below the age of 40 to foster classical music in India.
	"When we recognise young sports persons when they are 30 why we fail to recognise young musicians and wait till they reach 80 to bestow on them Padma Shri and Sangeet Natak Akademi awards? It's the duty of Indian Council of Cultural Relations (ICCR) to foster young talents and support them rather than sending older people on foreign tours," he told PTI in an interview.
	"What motivation youngsters will have to take to classical music if no recognition comes to them? They are into music not to make money but to wet their passion, the maestro said," he said.

Broadcast regulator TRAI has initiated a consultation process to suggest guidelines for renewal of Direct to Home (DTH) licences after the I&B Ministry wrote to it seeking recommendations.
	There are currently six players in the DTH segment who have been given licences for a period of 10 years.
	On September 3, just few weeks before one of the licences was about to expire, the ministry wrote to the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) seeking its recommendations on their renewal as the DTH guidelines were silent on the course of action after expiry of the 10-year licence period.
	TRAI secretary Rajeev Agrawal wrote back saying that the time given for providing the recommendations was simply not sufficient as consultations had to be held.
	He, however, added that in view of its subscriber base, a DTH company, whose licence had expired, should be allowed to continue operations subject to some conditions.
	The ministry has accepted the suggestion, officials said.
