With Mewati Gharana’s tradition rooted in Dhrupad, much of my riyaaz revolves around nom-tom. Sharing a short glimpse from today’s practice.

Can you guess the raag?

“Suno bansiwale binati hamari” is a bandish written and composed by my great-grandfather, Sangeet Ratna Pandit Motiram ji.
In this bandish, the sakhis are asking Krishna to hear their plea and give them his darshan.
Fun fact: I used to sing this a lot as a child!

Aperfect companion for that transition from a busy day to a peaceful night. 🌙
Take a breath, listen, and let the melody settle
