IMO, till rtp it felt like she didn't let go of some shackles and was hesitant, but with rtp alapanai and tanam it just flowed. could be a candidate for the rtp award

Very nice concert.
I keep harping on other threads on how i admire musicians who take risks and sing openly - K Gayathri certainly is one such musician who in fact at times takes way too many risks!!
But I dont complain...keep going at it Gayathri - you rock!!!

I liked the concert. Neatly executed without frills. Last time on my visit listened to her in the sub senior slot. Can someone explain the dvi nadai in the pallavi. Went over my head. Looked complex kudos to her. Guess the strong training by her guru vid suguna is evident.
