Indian musical instruments can be broadly classified into three categories, namely Classical, Western and Folk.

Classical instruments are those native to India and used in classical music. Vina, Sitar and Mrudangam are examples of native classical instruments. Violin is a popular western instrument used widely in Indian classical music, specifically Carnatic Music. There are numerous native musical instruments used in Folk music.
