I aspire to continue my musical journey with genuine dedication. Prior to becoming a skilled artist, my priority is to cultivate qualities of being a good human, as instilled by my family. Another aspiration of mine is to pass on our ancestral musical treasure, the Sarangi, to future generations. I hope to promote its understanding and learning among a wider audience. May this instrument be cherished and may Indian classical music continue to shine at its zenith. It's my earnest wish and humble request to carry forward this musical legacy and propagate the beauty of Indian classical music.
