Devilal Vidyapeeth (JCDV) auditorium. He left the audience spell bound with his Mohan Veena an instrument which Bhatt has carved out of Hawaiian Guitar by integrating some of the nuances of Sitar, Sarod & Veena. Mohan Veena, is a nineteen string modified arch top guitar with three melody strings, four drone strings and twelve sympathetic strings.
Addressing media persons at the residence of Dr. Kuldeep Dhindsa, he said that music should not be just the monopoly of the Bollywood. He said that when there is no dearth of channels on different subjects like NEWS, Animals, Science, Religions, Sports, Kids, Cartoons, Films & Film Music, Soap Operas, etc. there should be a channel fully dedicated to Classical Music also.
