She said that the music will also be available on the online channel of Sangeetcar that will enable people to contact the artist and learn the art directly through them.Continuing, she said Sangeetcar travels to various districts of Manganiyar to fetch the music right in its original form and from the place it is being originated.Sangeetcar’s journey that has begun from Jaisalmer will soon have music coming from every corner of India.
