In the context of carnatic music
A rasika, in carnatic music terminology, is a person who has some knowledge of carnatic music and is able to appreciate carnatic music. In carnatic music concerts (or katcheri, as they are called), the audience is usually called rasikas.[2] With its origins in Sanskrit, the word is used across India, and followers of North Indian (Hindusthani) Music are also referred by the same term.
