Rajat Katariya, known as TheRaKaLive, is an award-winning Indian classical vocalist and aspiring Bollywood playback singer based in Dwarka, New Delhi.

Contact: +91 93100 39283.
Welcome to the world of TheRaKaLive. My journey into music began with a single belief: that classical music is not just a discipline — it is a way of life. I am here to bridge the gap between emotion and music through soulful melodies and heartfelt performances. With a unique blend of classical finesse and contemporary charm, I am on a mission to create music that resonates deeply and leaves a lasting impression.
With rigorous years of riyaaz under esteemed Gurus and a stage presence refined across countless performances — from intimate classical recitals to large cultural events — I bring both technical precision and genuine heart to every note I sing. Whether it is a meditative raga, a soulful Sufi, or a high-energy Bollywood performance, the classical foundation ensures every note is delivered with authenticity and depth.
Stay tuned for a journey of passion, rhythm, and timeless melodies — and if you're ready to collaborate, I'd love to hear from you.
Book Rajat KatariyaMy Path in Indian Classical Music & Playback Singing
🎵 The Classical Foundation
My musical journey is rooted in Hindustani classical music — India's oldest and most disciplined vocal tradition. Under the guidance of esteemed Gurus across Delhi, Noida, and Gurugram, I have dedicated years of structured riyaaz to mastering the nuances of raga, taal, meend, gamak, and the subtle art of sur placement that separates a trained voice from a merely gifted one. My Gurus have noted: "His voice has the rare balance — the fire of a performer and the humility of a learner."
🎬 Playback Singing — The Dream
While Indian classical music is my foundation, my dream is Bollywood playback singing — a medium where the singer becomes the invisible emotional core of a film. From recording studios in Film City, Noida to home studio sessions, I am building a body of playback-ready work across Bollywood, Sufi, ghazal, and semi-classical genres. Every cover, every original, and every studio session is a step closer to that dream.
🏆 Recognition & Awards
Honoured with 10+ awards and certificates at national and zonal classical music competitions across India — recognised by esteemed institutions and jury panels for excellence in both classical and contemporary singing categories. These trophies are not just trophies of talent — they are certificates of discipline, of countless early mornings in riyaaz, and of notes perfected through thousands of repetitions.
🎓 Teaching & Giving Back
I firmly believe that the best way to honour the knowledge passed down by my Gurus is to share it. I offer structured Hindustani classical vocal training in Dwarka, New Delhi — from beginner foundations to advanced competition preparation — helping aspiring singers build the same classical roots that have shaped my voice.

What Event Organisers & Students Say About TheRaKaLive
Rajat's performance at our daughter's wedding sangeet was truly exceptional. He sang with such classical purity and emotional depth that our guests were moved to tears. A rare talent — classically trained yet deeply relatable. Highly recommended for any wedding in Delhi NCR.
I enrolled in Rajat's vocal training workshop in Dwarka and saw measurable improvement in my sur accuracy within just four sessions. His teaching method — rooted in classical riyaaz but practically focused — is unlike anything I had experienced before. A true Guru.
We booked Rajat for our company's annual cultural evening in Gurugram. He delivered a flawless 90-minute set blending classical ragas with Bollywood — exactly what our diverse audience needed. Professional, punctual, and phenomenal. We will definitely book him again.
Rajat performed a classical raga recital at our cultural programme in Noida and received a standing ovation. His ability to hold an audience through a 45-minute raga exposition — keeping them completely engaged — speaks to the depth of his training and the power of his presence on stage.
