room mate is learning to play and he says it's pretty damn difficult, mainly due to the scaling and rhythms - and this is someone that already plays 9/10 instruments (majority to grade7/8 standards)

oh yeah, not to burst a bubble but that is an ornament rather than a propper Sitar - it's lacking 5 strings (has 16 by the looks of it instead of the usually 21 odd) and it's far to small.
Saying that, have you tried tuning it? If you can add tension to the strings without the whole lot folding in half, then tune the the top strings to C and then bodge the drones.
