Option D

Sultan Khan – Sarangi

Solution :

To determine the correctly matched pair, let us examine each of the given options and the musical instruments associated with each legendary Indian classical musician:
1. Hariprasad Chaurasia – Sarod: This match is incorrect. Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia is a world-renowned maestro of the Bansuri (classical Indian bamboo flute), not the Sarod.
2. Zakir Husain – Sitar: This match is incorrect. Ustad Zakir Husain is an internationally acclaimed master of the Tabla, not the Sitar.
3. Bismillah Khan – Tabla: This match is incorrect. Ustad Bismillah Khan was a legendary maestro of the Shehnai, who played a pivotal role in bringing it to the classical stage.
4. Sultan Khan – Sarangi: This match is correct. Ustad Sultan Khan was a highly celebrated classical vocalist and virtuoso player of the Sarangi, a bowed string instrument from Hindustani classical music.

Therefore, the only correctly matched pair is Sultan Khan – Sarangi.
