Sitar is not just an instrument for me, it’s family, it’s legacy. Learnt first from my father, then dived deep into the world of classical music. Awards? Haan, mil gaye (yeah, got some), but they just remind me to keep the music honest. I love performing, teaching, and mixing old-school raags with new-age sounds. Schools, festivals, home gigs – I’m always up for sharing some real music. ### My work - **Sitar Performances & Collaborations**: I play solo recitals, jugalbandi, and Sitar fusion collaborations for events, festivals, and house concerts. - **Fusion & Folktronica**: Rooted in Hindustani raag recital, but I also do folktronica sitar performance and lofi Bollywood sitar tracks. - **Workshops & Lecture-Demos**: I run classical music workshops, often in schools, to connect young folks to Indian classical arts. - **Performance Approach**: Each gig’s different - whether it’s pure alaap-jhala or a high-energy fusion, I keep it authentic and expressive.
