I suggest you link this video to DynamycDesi - they give weekly awards to such talents and can be a good platform to promote globally

interesting, It must take lots of practice to be good at a precise insterment like that, even more then the violin I sadly dont play any insterments, I sing gregorian chant a little though by ear.

Yes. The instrument has 93 strings, 3 per note, for a total of 31 notes with a tuning range of up to 3 octaves. Keshav is playing a very popular folk song "Govinda Aalaa Re" in taal Dadra, a 6 beat rhythm cycle. Thank you for your comments.
