Also I forget the N2 and N3 fingering differences :) If you have any videos of that, it would be great to share.

Hello, when you play 'Ni' is it supposed to sound as koman ni (flat 7th) ? Is it something specific to Carnatic ? If so, how do we play a natural scale in this flute ? Or should I just play it from Pa to Pa' for a natural scale ?

If you half close the 3rd hole you get teevra ni i.e., 2.5 holes
