Watch Gwalior Gharana vocalist Dr. Meeta Pandit's exclusive interview only on Raaggiri. Meeta began training with her grandfather Padma Bhushan Pt. Krishnarao Shankar Pandit and her father Pt. L.K Pandit at the age of 3. Growing up in a house where music ustads and her father's disciples visited day in and day out, and all conversations centered around music, she was exposed to the finer aspects of music from a very young age. She is the sixth in the unbroken lineage and the first woman in the family to have taken up music as a profession.
