  1. Subham Kumar Nahak –

    A good starting point for understanding Hindustani music. I found the chapters on Khayal and Thumri very helpful and clear.

  2. Hafis Shajahan –

    I wanted to read more about modern artists and bands, but the book didn’t have much. It was focused on historical facts and information.

  3. Ajay Singh –

    A decent book, but I found it a bit dry. Needed more real-life stories to liven it up. However, content is credible.

  4. Rohan –

    It was ok, but I felt I needed a more in-depth explanation of certain topics in the book. I am left with some unanswered questions.

  5. Himanshu Shekhar –

    A comprehensive study of Hindustani music. Some sections were repetitive. The chapters on instruments were my favorite.

  6. Paras Gohri –

    The book is very helpful if you want to learn about ragas and instruments, but the writing is tough to get through at times.

  7. Arpit –

    An enlightening read for anyone interested in Indian classical music. Could have benefited from a glossary of terms. Highly recommended!

  8. Aman Arora –

    Fascinating insights into Hindustani music! The historical context was particularly well-researched. A bit dense in places, but worth the effort.

  9. Abhishek Chaudhary –

    This book is worth the money! It’s really insightful and explores the history of Hindustani music in detail. Great for scholars.

  10. Soujanya Tiwari –

    A good overview, but felt a bit academic. Could have used more personal anecdotes from musicians. Still, a valuable resource.

  11. Shubham Jindal –

    Enjoyed learning about the different forms like Dhrupad and Khayal. The book can be difficult to get through if you don’t already have some familiarity.

  12. Shashank Nath Mishra –

    Excellent! The author’s passion for the subject shines through. Learned so much about the intricacies of ragas. Highly recommended.

  13. Janvi Arya –

    What an amazing book! I learned about the evolution of the Sitar and Sarod. It’s a must-read for those who love music.

  14. Renuka Sanjeev Bhure –

    I’d recommend this book for music lovers and scholars! It’s very descriptive and detailed. You will learn something new for sure!

  15. Gurleen Kaur –

    Very informative and well-written. I especially enjoyed the section on the evolution of the sitar. A must-read for music students.

  16. Karan Singh –

    The discussion of contemporary trends was interesting, but felt a little rushed. Overall, a solid introduction to the subject.

  17. Nishtha Gandotra –

    It’s an informative book, but I felt lost at times. I think it would be more suited to experts than people new to music.

  18. Shuvadip Sinha –

    Insightful and well-researched, but sometimes dry. I think the book would be more appealing with some images to support the text.

  19. Roshan Kr Barnwal –

    For the price, this is a worthwhile book about Hindustani music. However, I don’t see myself reading it again any time soon.
