&quot;He is my guru and I wanted to pay a tribute to him. I have arranged this for him only. He used to love me a lot and I have learnt so much from him,&quot; Mohan Khan told IANS. &quot;For a disciple, his guru is more important than god...This &#39;parampara&#39; will never die,&quot; he added. <img alt="" src="http://ians.in/stories/2012/Jul/11/profile.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 586px; " /> Ustad Mohan Khan. Pic/IANS Mehdi Hassan died in Karachi June 13 after a prolonged illness.u00a0The suggestion came from Khan&#39;s students.u00a0&quot;I was more than ready to pay him a tribute. Honestly,&quot; he said adding that he will sing Mehdi Hassan&#39;s popular ghazals like &quot;Ranjish hi sahi&quot;, &quot;Ab ke hum bichde&quot;, &quot;Mohabbat Karne wale&quot; and &quot;Zindagi mein tho sabhi pyar...&quot; at the concert. He says it was &quot;difficult to select from his work&quot; and that he picked up the &quot;most popular ones&quot;.u00a0Mohan Khan came in touch with Hassan in the late 80s and after that he was constantly with him.u00a0&quot;He visited India in the late 1970s and 1980s. There would be concerts and a lot of us, his followers, would be around him, wanting to hear and learn from him. He would visit my house, discuss nuances of the art,&quot; he said. &quot;I remember this concert in Leela Penta (now Hotel Leela) where he asked me to sing in the second half. It was abrupt - he told everyone that the second half of the concert will be presented by my &#39;shaghird&#39;, Mohan Khan... I was shocked and surprised as there were luminaries from the music field present,&quot; he added.
