PARIS (Reuters) - Sitar virtuoso Ravi Shankar decided the show must go in France on Sunday despite two of his instruments being broken during a flight from Lebanon.

New instruments arrived from India ready for the concert in Arles, in the south of France.

"His instrument-maker arrived from India with two sitars, therefore he will be able to give his concert this evening with his daughter," said Corrine Falaschi, head of communications at the World Music festival in Arles.

"I feel like I have lost two relatives," California-based Shankar, 85, said of the broken sitars. His family blamed French flag carrier Air France.

An Air France spokesman said on Sunday: "The company is seeking a evaluation of the damage and the harm done."
