Yadnesh Raikar From Playing Violin at 2, To Featuring On Rolling Stones

You may have first seen him as the 4-year old who walked on stage and played to a packed hall of 600 people. But Yadnesh’s story is far more layered than “child prodigy”. In this episode of InControversial, Pooja sits down with violin virtuoso Yadnesh Raikar, son of Swarpradnya Pandit Milind Raikar, and one of the youngest torchbearers of Indian classical violin today From rigorous Hindustani training to mastering Carnatic techniques under Dr. L. Subramaniam, drawing inspiration from legends like L. Shankar and Ustad Zakir Hussain to experimenting with fusion, jazz and electronic soundscapes, Yadnesh is building a sound that honours lineage while refusing to stay confined by it. He opens up about the weight of legacy, the discipline behind a 2-hour raag performance, and why taking classical music to younger audiences is both a challenge and a responsibility. We also talk about global stages, 8-minute standing ovations, the Rolling Stone Future of Music 2025 list, dream collaborations with Coldplay and A. R. Rahman, and why humility might just be his biggest green flag. At its heart, this is a conversation about purity of craft in a noisy world, about staying grounded even when the applause gets louder, and about making an instrument “cool” without ever compromising its soul. If you have ever wondered what it takes to carry tradition forward and still make it feel new, this one is for you.
