Explaining the wholistic appeal of the experience, Founder-Director Aanchal Gupta says it's a must-do for the always-in-a-rush city folk. "The entire session is de-stressing and energising at the same time; it's a beautiful feeling to be a part of. Taufiqji is a great musician and getting the opportunity to perform and play alongside and interact with him on a one-on-one level, is something else. It's the energy that he creates out of everything," she adds. Sessions are open to all and prior musical knowledge is not necessary.
