If it had been an animal, the vichitra veena would have been a threatened species by now. And if women vichitra veena artistes are not an extinct breed today, it is thanks to 28-year-old Radhika Budhkar. It is not difficult to see why the vichitra veena is played so rarely and then too only by men. It is a huge instrument, with two voluminous gourds and an unwieldy shape that does not allow it to be rested on the body. It is laid flat on the ground and played with the artiste's arms bent in the air
