Musician and composer Soumik Datta presents a musical travelogue around India. From a spectacular religious festival in Kerala, to folk musicians in the deserts of Rajasthan, intimate performances on the banks of the Ganges, to encounters with Delhi's hip hop superstars, Soumik takes us on an entertaining journey celebrating India's remarkable musical diversity. Meeting and performing with folk, classical and pop musicians, he travels from the biggest cities to the most remote communities, exploring how music helps us understand India's past and its rapidly changing present.

In the second episode Soumik arrives at one of India's most sacred sites - alongside the Ganges in Varanasi to witness an elaborate nightly ritual led by Hindu Priests. He also meets one of the stars of the most traditional of all southern Indian classical instruments - the veena.
