Music student gives indian classical lessons

You should learn classical music because classical music is base; if you learn classically, you also easily sing western or Bollywood or any genre songs.

You are as good as you think you are

It depends on which kind of music you prefer. If you have the desire to sit for 2hrs and do the proper riyaz only then opt for Indian classical.

It depends on which kind of music you prefer. If you have the desire to sit for 2hrs and do the proper riyaz only then opt for Indian classical. In western, it depends on how much improvisation you can do with your vocals and the breathing technique where it is very important. Still, if you want my suggestion, I would want you to listen to both performances for urself and then given your vocals decide which will fully satisfy your demand both aesthetically and from your voice quality. I would want you to devote your time to one particular style of music but would recommend you to listen to both performances. It will widen your understanding of music. For example, a folk singer should listen to country music or else he/she will not be able to improvise and hence after a while, his singing style will feel monotonous to the audiences. All the best for your musical journey

What you have learnt must be Electric Guitar with a western music base, though you have not sepcified. If you learnt western vocal, it might go with it more comfortable. However the style of singing is also based on what is your overall objective - If you want to become a good singer, and even a lead singer in many world music groups, Indian style vocal is very very useful, and you can develop excellent skills if you practise v well. We also teach vocals in Carnatic style, and you can also find plenty of good accomplished teachers in your city of residence.
Best Wishes

Go in for both classical and western if you can compartmentalize and learn. Else for electric guitar western vocals will help out more

You can go for both. Western-style singing is more application and technique-based, which will help your application of the technique at ease in your Hindustani singing. Hence it shall help you build a strong base on singing.
