Hey sayan, thank you for sharing! Hope you get back to music making!
The piano phrases from 0:34 to 1:00 are nice and I think they should be highlighted more because right now they are being covered by the left hand chords and the vocal phrases. Also the left hand chords sound a bit muddy to me but I think it has more to do with how they are voiced rather than how they are mixed. You could try spreading them, omiting the 5th of the chord or inverting them while keeping the root an octave down apart.
I like listening the whole ensemble play throughout a piece so I would enjoy if you had the drums play some hats at the beginning, or have the guitar do some distant (reverberated) effects and the cello some double stops or pizzicati.
Since you play powerchords over the guitar solos you could have the piano do some wide arpeggios rather than heavy chords on the first beat.
I think the rain effect could have longer fade outs.
These are all arranging suggestions but they could help with having a more balanced result which would require less tinkering
The guitar sounds nice enough to my ears. What is your rig?
