Here's a video clip of Sri Nidhi, a child prodigy in CM.

Does anyone know where she is - does she sing herself?

If you look at more of those videos uploaded by the parents of her, you'll see her sing another song (Garuda Gamana in Hindolam). She certainly has learned music, but I don't think shes a performing artist.

I think I remember reading somewhere that she is learning from the Hyderabad brothers. I could be mistaken . Anyway here is a grown up Sri Nidhi singing Hindolam referred to by mri fan. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=A26n2BVnEE4
Her brother has posted the videos

Hmm, it seems she has moved on to the showbiz world...
truly sad, but I guess this is today's world where pop culture rules...

She has grown up into a beautiful lady. Though filmy her suddhadhanyasi is intoxicating!
I would not be surprised if she makes big as an actress as well...

Hmm, i thought she was shouting in a few places...

Arasi is right: Passages indeed

surely a loss for CM though

What do you expect when she is singing Fusion Music :)

I guess the original was sung by Bombay Jayasree who shouted better :)

DEAR CMLOVER
i THINK iT IS yet another victim akin to MADHUMITA , a talented young artist( Daughter of Smt.Hemalatha Mani ,a versatile Veena vidhushi)who has chosen to migrate from the carnatic music field to fusion music., perhaps due to the singular reason of exhorbitantly LUCRATIVE remuneration inspite of her AMAZING prowess in CM.i THINK music lovers , Sabhas and connoisuers should take note of this Unless immediate measures are not contemplated , I am afraid the exodus might be too heavy to sustain with.

As far as I know, she just started with one of the Hyderabad Brothers but not with an intention to really continue could be with an assumption that name brand teachers might sound good when going through competetions. I could be wrong.

There is a bindumalini 'enta muddo enta sogaso' by the same girl sung magnificently in youtube. But as some members noted, she is more into competetions and films. Hope she realises and doesn't lose interest in CM.

Was it not Sudha Raghunathan in Morning Raga?
