Haldar has more than 40 years of experience in Indian and Western Classical music[1] and has performed at various concerts and events such as Vichitra Veena for Akashvani, Doordarshan and Sangeet Natak Academy. He drew inspiration from Vichitra Veena.
After a decade of work he created a smaller musical instrument with a unique tonal quality that is a combination of the veena, sitar and guitar.[2] The instrument is played with picks on fore-finger, middle-finger and thumb.[3] On the Ranjan Veena, an experienced musician can play all the Indian Classical Instrumental techniques: Meed (Slide) Gamak, Krintan, Gitkari and the fast Taans.
