That is a thiruppugazh, which Alathur Bros used to sing in Khanda Jaathi Dhruva thAlam. It has an eDuppu at 6 beats after samam.(i.e, it begins at the 7th beat at the veechu).

Chengalpet Ranganathan sang this once @ Ragasudha

Actually Sanjay explained that it was modified to fit into the same 17 aksharas using the misra+2*khanda tala first by Flute Maestro Sankaran sir who was sitting in the audience at the concert.

A nice gesture to celebrate the maestro's 84th birthday in advance :)

See Uday's post in Music and Festivals and Jayanth's (T.S. Sankaran's grandson and flautist) blog for details. All are welcome to the event, a concert by talented young artistes to follow, and cake too!

One of the mind-bending innovations at this concert was attempted during the Nagaswarali swara prastharam early in the concert. Lasting just a minute or so, Sanjay executed some non-chalant swarabedham, as if to test if people were paying attention :-)

Glad you asked!

I will try to do better. Here is a short clip (for educational purposes).

It is the tail end of a rocking swara prastharam that had the audience dancing in their seats. See if you can spot the moment I almost fell off the chair :-)
