Each regional style features a syahi  and head thickness & shell depth done according to the requirements of playing style or gharana.

Tor  Dietrichson, who is a close friend of Zakir Hussain and has recorded with him and is one of his earliest students with 35 years of tabla  playing experience says this: " I think all of these instruments are of the highest quality available and are very reasonably priced. I  have purchased some of the tabla drums by Parampara. Because as a professional  tabla player who plays not only in Indian classical but also World  Fusion settings I like to have tabla drums of every pitch. And these  are the finest drums I have ever seen. They have my highest recommendation  absolutely!!"
