Souvik Batabyal

I learned from my guru's everyday. I worship them, respect them, live with them like my own father which is more important to learn before knowing any art form. At beginner I got talim from Pt. Shankar nath saha (Former Govt. Employee Sitar and Dilruba Player, Prasar Bharati and Akashbani AIR) Senia Maihar Gharana and desciple of Pt. Indaneel Bhattacharya. Later on I am very fortunate to learn and Attend workshop of Ustad ji (Padmshree Ustad Shahid Parvez Khan) and Grammy Awrad winner Pt. Viswa Mohan Bhatt Ji, both of them are Legendary Artist and I choose to move forward with Gandhar Pancham Style (Vilayat khani Etawah Gharana Style).

I also have learned Commercial and Western Classical from my own research, to know how to play in different scale with sitar.

At the age of 5 I learned Tabla from Subrata Mukherjee whom is former Senior Desciple of Pt.Shankar Ghosh and Pt.Swapan Choudhury, it helps me a lot to play sitar efficiently.
