Love in Summer is one of my original compositions from my album Sitar Rhapsody. As it's name suggests its a beautiful romantic piece. This is a live version that I performed along with my ensemble at NCPA, Mumbai. You can hear the original audio track on Youtube or other online music platforms.

Essentially, it is a fusion ensemble that blends original melodious compositions based on Indian Classical music art form played through Sitar, to create a unique, classy contemporary sound, that is not only engaging but also hi-energy. The ensemble features some of the finest young musicians on the World music scene in India. Sitar Rhapsody’s Music: Chirag has made a conscious effort to make the band sound unlike other fusion bands on the live circuit, by picking on rarely experimented with Indian Classical Raagas such as Pilu and fusing them with not so often fused Western music genres such as Blues. The band also often pleasantly surprises their live audiences, by throwing in Classical-fusion versions of classic mainstream songs, not only from Bollywood, but also those from Western greats such as The Beatles and Bob Marley, etc., in between their raag-based original compositions.
