So, it wasn't a typical RTP but a TP...The item most elaborate in a concert was like a large house into which you stepped directly into a large living area--no entry hall or veranda. Also, no space after the kitchen and dining area...Wonder if they ran short of time (late start?) or, they were going to do an elaborate main, but there were requests for a Pallavi? A spur of the moment decision perhaps?
Was tODi sung in detail with RNS?

[ranjanimalavi]

Almost all the concert I attended in this series, it started invariably between 20 to 30 minutes late.
Thodi was done very elaborately.
They did ask the audience before starting the pallavi, and they hardly had any time.
I feel after listening to their concerts before, yesterday's presentation was confident and matured.

No Ragam, No swaram. Thalayum illamal valum illamal, idu enna pallavi. I feel of late, they are taking too much liberties. If there is no time, why should they take up a pallavi.

In the Adyar Ananthapadmnabhaswamy temple concert, they took Mokshamugalada for main. Did a very elaborate neraval and left at that. No swrams pronbably because of lack of time. Then they also wasted time in speaking avoidable things
