Cohen said, “Music is language which connects with our neighbours.” He said a unique thing about Indian music is that it has many layers which includes classical music.

“You can hear Indian music in the streets which means people are very proud of their tradition,” he said. He further hailed Indian music and said it has a universal language.

“I feel Indian music is like an ocean,” Cohen said.
