It completly depends upon what you are most comfortable with. I would recommend anywhere from a small C (it is usually 15 inches) to a G.

A small C bansuri is higher pitched, and is better for "rural" or "movie" sounding music. A G-scale bansuri is mediumish. If you have the oppurtunity, go to a shop and see which sound you like the most. If you are ordering online, go for a C or a G.
