Ravi Shankar worked with George Harrison to organize 'The Concert of Bangladesh', which was a benefit concert for the victims of the Bhola Cyclone in Bangladesh, as well as the Bangladesh Atrocities and the Liberation War in the early 1970s.

'The Concert of Bangladesh' featured big names in those days, including Eric Clapton, Bob Dylan, Ringo Starr, and Badfinger. It was the first benefit concert in the world to yield such results: the audience tallied up to 40,000 people, raising US$243,000, which was no mean feat during those days.

Hoped that helped a little.
