What is a fret on a sitar?

A fret on a sitar is a raised ridge on the neck of the instrument, which helps musicians change the pitch of the strings when pressed down.

The sitar typically features both regular and sympathetic strings, and the frets play a crucial role in producing the instrument's distinctive sound and facilitating complex melodic patterns.

How do sitar players play the sitar?

I am a sitar player, and the way we play sitar is by sitting down, and putting one leg over the other and balancing the sitar on the leg that is slanted. We can't look at the frets on the sitar; we can only hear them, which makes it even harder. The sitar isn't that heavy, but sitting down for long periods of time can hurt while balancing an object on your leg.
