Ali Zafar shared an adorable video of teaching his niece classical music basis. In a heartfelt caption, he also advocated for the inclusion of music as a compulsory subject in schools. "Spending a beautiful sunny Sunday with family teaching my niece some Eastern classical music basics. I have always advocated that music should be taught as a compulsory subject in schools. Here is why:

Studies in neuroscience show that music can enhance brain function in children. Musical activities (such as playing an instrument, singing or just listening to music) stimulate the brain, and this brain workout leads to improved brain structure with the formation of new neural connections.

They have shown that learning music enhances their skills in mathematics and other subjects, besides speech development and easy reading. It can also enhance empathy, understanding of self and social skills apart from several other benefits in knowledge and personality development. These are just SOME of the benefits.

Also once you start to study the cosmos. Everything is frequencies and vibrations resonating at some level. You may call the Universe one big symphony in motion. We must learn more about it. Knowledge is key to any human development." he captioned the post.
