By PTI



Sitar maestro Pandit Ravi Shankar's condition was stable and he is expected to be released from the hospital in San Diego very soon, family sources said on Tuesday. Sitar maestro Pandit Ravi Shankar, who was admitted to a hospital in San Diego is receiving the "best care", a family spokesman said. "Panditji was suffering from pneumonia but now his condition is stable," Robin Pal, a spokesman of the internationally renowned sitar player told PTI. He also said that the 86-year-old sitarist is expected to be released from hospital very soon. "There is nothing to worry about. We have been getting calls from people across the country who are worried about Panditji's health. With their prayers and best wishes he will come back home in a few days," Pal said.

"All I can say is that he is in the hospital and in the best care he can be. His wife Sukanya is pretty much at his side," Jennifer told us not wanting to give out either her last name or the hospital in which Ravi Shankar has been admitted. Jennifer is with the Ravi Shankar Foundation at Encinitas, California. Shankar was admitted in a hospital in San Diego, California a week back with a lung problem and had been kept under constant observation.
