The 'Sitar for Mental Health' Experience

This is the heart of my mission: using music as medicine. Each concert is an immersive experience, starting with guided meditation and pranayama to quiet the mind, followed by soulful ragas and fusion music to create a space for healing, reflection, and community connection.

Classical Roots, Modern Sound

I love to bridge worlds by blending the timeless soul of the sitar with contemporary sounds. This is where you'll find my unique takes on everything from Bollywood classics and jazz standards to the themes of Game of Thrones, Harry Potter, and The Godfather.

Music for the Soul: Bhajans & Chants

My music is deeply connected to my spiritual roots. This is a collection of devotional pieces, including powerful chants like the Shiv Tandav Stotram, bhajans dedicated to Lord Shiva and Ganesha, and other sacred melodies that serve as a prayer and a path to inner peace.

The Sitar Sorcerer: My Style

For me, performance is a complete form of expression, and style is a part of that story. I work with incredible designers to create looks that blend traditional Indian aesthetics with a modern, global edge, reflecting the music itself.

My Roots & Journey

My journey is built on a legacy of family and the blessings of my Guru. Here, I share moments with my Guru, the legendary Pt. Ravi Shankar, and my father, Sanjay Rikhiram, who is not only my first teacher but also the master craftsman behind my sitars.

Welcome to my creative space. Here I share the technical and theoretical aspects of my music, from exploring deep, meditative ragas on the Surbahar (the 'bass sitar') to breaking down complex improvisational techniques like 'Jhaala.'
