[Priyankoo]

With the success of the *Slumdog Millionaire* film and soundtrack, Indian
music is in the spotlight. But is it all Hindi-pop and Bollywood? The BBC's
Laura Hubber turned her back on AR Rahman and travelled to Delhi and the
rural Northeast of India to find out about the current state of the
traditional Indian music scene.

Also  features Dhritiman Deori ( http://www.myspace.com/dhriti ) who is
currently involved in the online archiving of sounds of Northeast.
