Live performer with real stage credits

Nakul performs across stage productions, live ensembles and studio sessions, and brings that working-musician calibration straight into class. Students learn what 'in time' actually feels like at performance pressure.

Recording-artist discipline

Studio work demands a kind of laya control that live performance does not, every micro-second matters. That discipline is what Nakul transmits to senior students preparing for serious work.

Teaches rhythm first, drum second

His students arrive able to count tala, sing sollus, and hold time without an instrument before they ever play a complex korvai. That is the foundation that holds together every later piece they learn.
