Breaking the stereotype of the male dominated dhrupad tradition, Amita Sinha and Janhavi Phansalkar have trained with the internationally renowned vocalists Umakant and Ramakant Gundecha. Once closely associated with dhrupad, rudraveena is a rare instrument today. Murali Mohan Gouda and Heikel Ben Mlouka have trained with eminent instrumentalists such as Asit Kumar Banerjee and Rajshekhar Vyas. Having trained with renowned pakhawaj maestro Shrikant Mishra, Akhilesh Gundecha is regarded among the finest exponents of Kudau Singh style of pakhawaj today. Dnyaneshwar Deshmukh and Anuja Borude are being trained by Akhilesh Gundecha at the Dhrupad Sansthan. Both have performed widely in India and overseas.
