New Delhi, April 20: Sitarist and neo-classical music trailblazer Rishab Rikhiram Sharma brought his India tour to a close in New Delhi in the attendance of Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta and Rajya Sabha member Rajeev Shukla on Sunday. Rishab's performance opened with a welcome speech by his parents, followed by a meditative breathing session before unfolding into an expansive exploration of ragas, including Bihaag, Kedar, Tilak Kamod, and Shyam Kalyan, performed on SITARA--The Next-Generation Electric Sitar.

He performed the contemporary sitar reinterpretation of the global hit song from Dhurandhar, which immediately captivated the attention of the audience. Unfolding into a genre-defying medley, he blended sitar, percussion, and shehnai, seamlessly weaving in samples from Dhurandhar's 'FA9LA' while paying homage to Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan with insets from 'Man Atkeya Beparwah De Naal,' as per the press note. Rishab Rikhiram Sharma Is a Visionary Siratist and Music Producer, Redefining the Essence of Indian Classical Music.
