The King of Bollywood Piano Covers! His collaborations with vocalist Jonita Gandhi (who's also sung for a lot of movies recently) and flautist Sahil Khan helped create some of the most beautiful covers on YouTube. Those fingers of his - magic!

This amazing chap plays some of the most beautiful Indian music on his clarinet! He collaborates with some of the most talented people on the globe and creates music you've probably always wanted to listen to. Take a bow, Mr Shankar Tucker!

Stumbled upon this hidden gem. I have no idea how he does it.. but this is just ridiculously brilliant!!! This guy seems like a virtuoso when it comes to playing Indian Classical Music on an iPad. WHY HASN'T THIS BLOWN UP YET?

Hip Hop anyone? These guys are GOOD!

Arjun

There's a reason why he is mentioned last on this list.. because this guy is a big star already with the biggest following ever! Nearly every girl I know watches his videos on repeat, because of him and his music (in that particular order).
