Intimate Sitar Sessions for Meditation & Wellness
I create sacred, candlelit spaces where the sitar helps you breathe and truly unplug. Whether it is a corporate wellness retreat or an intimate private gathering, my music helps you find a moment of stillness in a loud world. Let us create a sanctuary together.

About this collection
My setup is designed to transform any room into a sanctuary, using custom LED candles and floor rugs to physically shift the energy before I even play a note. I work with high-fidelity sound, ensuring the balance is perfect for conversation, deep listening, or guided breathwork, so your guests can fully settle into the space.
Finding a moment of peace at an event can be rare. My intimate sessions are not just about background music; they are immersive experiences designed for mindfulness. By combining ancient Ragas with guided breathwork and modern soundscapes, I help audiences slow down.
From the historic Tagore Theatre in Chandigarh to recitals in Kolkata and New York, I adapt my approach to fit the venue. I use the Surbahar—an ancient instrument with a deeper, more meditative resonance than the standard sitar—to open these sessions, leading into breathwork and then melodic sitar improvisation.
Technically, I handle the full ambiance. You do not need to worry about sound design. I bring my own high-fidelity pedalboard, which allows me to add subtle reverb and delay, creating an ethereal sound that feels vast even in smaller rooms. If you are hosting a corporate wellness retreat, a private dinner, or a yoga session, I work with you on the setlist. We can keep it purely classical, or include lofi and acoustic covers if that better suits the vibe you want for your guests. Every performance is live, unscripted, and shaped by the energy in the room.
