Solution
Due to differences in the pitch and timber, the sound produced by a tabla and a sitar is different.
When fingers or palms thump the leather surface in a tabla with leather fitted, sound is produced.
Thus, the waves produced two-dimensional travel.
The sitar's strings are fastened to a pumpkin-shaped box known as a sound box.
The pitch and frequencies produced by a sitar and a tabla are different, hence they produce different sounds.
