Raghunandan Panshikar is a classical musician of the Jaipur gharana, born into a family of Sanskrit scholars and classical musicians. He is the son of the Marathi stage actor and producer Prabhakar Panshikar. His aptitude for music was recognised and fostered from an early age. He began his formal study of music in Mumbai at the age of 11, learning from the late Pt. Vasantrao Kulkarni for two years. From the age of 17 he trained for some 20-22 years under Kishori Amonkar, doyen of the Jaipur gharana. During this time he was also guided by her mother, the late Smt. Mogubai Kurdikar, known as 'Gaan Tapaswini', an early disciple of Ustad Alladiya Khan, the founder of the Jaipur-Atrauli gharana.
