About Rishab Sharma
Rishab Sharma is an Indian sitarist, music producer and mental health advocate known for presenting Indian classical music through a contemporary, immersive lens. The youngest and last disciple of Pandit Ravi Shankar, he began learning sitar at ten and made his stage debut in 2011. His work brings together traditional ragas, original compositions and familiar contemporary melodies, making the sitar accessible to diverse audiences. Through his Sitar for Mental Health initiative, he combines live music with mindful breathing and reflective experiences.
For event organisers, Rishab Sharma offers more than a conventional instrumental recital. His performances can be shaped as a featured concert, a mindful opening, a cultural showcase or a distinctive entertainment segment for corporate gatherings, premium celebrations and public events. His repertoire can move between classical ragas, original works and contemporary interpretations, creating a format that feels rooted yet relevant. With 5,000+ events covered by engage4more, organisers also benefit from an experienced booking network and structured coordination support.
In 2025, Rishab performed internationally as part of his Sitar for Mental Health journey and became the first neo-classical artist featured on DJ AG's Live Session in London. In 2026, his ten-city India tour brought the project to Bengaluru, Mumbai, Pune, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Chennai, Ahmedabad, Chandigarh, Kolkata and New Delhi. The Mumbai concert drew than 20,000 people, while the tour introduced SITARA, an LED-enhanced electric sitar developed with his father Sanjay Sharma. These milestones reinforce his appeal for culturally rich, contemporary live experiences. For corporate audiences, the mindful structure can support wellness gatherings and leadership retreats, while the concert format can anchor premium cultural events. His combination of heritage, storytelling, modern sound and visual innovation gives planners a distinctive alternative to conventional entertainment, when the brief calls for music with meaning, recall and a clear cultural point of view.
