Advaita aren't just another Indian Rock band. As they ready for another album release, band member Abhishek Mathur takes us through the showreel

What's the hardest thing about trying to mix a raaga with rock?
The challenge is to make it all seamless and not sound forced. I think we've been pretty successful in this regard, but can make it all come together even more. It's not just a technical thing, as we learn from each other daily. The 'mixing' of raaga and rock will hopefully get more and more intimate.

A number of people who have listened to The Silent Sea describe it as more serious than your debut, Grounded in Space. Would you agree?
It is definitely more serious. There was no special effort to do that; the band members are just older, have seen more of life and, in general, have grown as people and musicians.
