Such a tragic loss to Indian music. Zubeen Garg brought Northeast Indian music to mainstream audiences. His contribution to Assamese cinema is unparalleled.

While the tributes are beautiful, I wish mainstream media gave more coverage to regional artists like Zubeen Garg when they were alive, not just after tragic deaths.
