Mumbai, June 1 (IBNS) Actor, comedian, RJ Mantra made an unique move while shuffling between his passion for playing tabla and shooting for his upcoming TV show Narayan Narayan Chulbule Narad Ki Natkhat Leelayen recently as he was seen thumping the musical instrument in his 'Narad Muni' costume and make-up.

The entertainer managed to take out some time from his busy shooting schedule of his show to learn tabla in Baroda.

Mantra said, "I love playing percussion instruments. As it comes naturally to me, although I enjoying playing the basic dhol, I always wanted to learn Tabla. So now that i am parked in Baroda for more than half a month, thought of pursuing my passion and found a tabla teacher who comes and train me."

The actor is so caught up with shooting for the show that, he seldom finds time to change, and practices the instrument in his Narad Muni costume and make-up.

Ironically, Narad Muni is known for carrying another musical instrument, a Veena.
