Hi Bro, Tabla is differs from Dholak in posture and tone as well, Dholak is easier than Tabla, you can easily learn Dholak if you have a little Rhythm sense, in order to handle bass part you'll take time to get a better knowledge, hope this would be helpful for you.

Tabla is more difficult than dholak , its not compulsory to learn tabla before dholak but if you want to be a pro in playing leather instruments of rhythm learning tabla will be of great help and you will have lot more hold and control on overall rhythm or beat sense.
