New Delhi: The fifth Grammy nomination for her latest album “Home” is special for Anoushka Shankar but the sitarist says it will come as a huge surprise if she wins. Shankar, 34, has been nominated in the Best World Music Album category for the self-composed record, which is a pure Indian classical album showcasing the meditative qualities of the Indian raga. “Other people nominated alongside me are legends. I have been nominated against most of them multiple times and I have lost against them at least twice. “Angelique (Kidjo) won last year, Gilberto Gil won when I was nominated for ‘Rise’ and Ladysmith Black Mambazo won another year when I was nominated. So, I have been losing against these guys. I will be very surprised if I win. I am being so used to getting nominated every time,” Anoushka, who is currently in India for her three city tour, said.
