These two clips were recorded a few days before the
final competition. In them, Andrew is practicing his
compositions with tabla player Gulam Fareed at the
Bhatt family house. Sitarist Ankit Bhatt, nephew of
Andrew's Guru, Pandit Krishn Mohan Bhatt,
looks on and offers some feedback. These clips do
not run in there entirety in the film.
