Guru Karaikudi mani accompanying is very very rare. In the last one year , I did see one or two in chennai. Nice line up of artists in unnati- the artist line up appears nearly the same as last year. Few of my relatives who live some where close to the airport road always go gA gA with Unnati series. I have not been to this venue at all- hopefully one day .

Best wishes to a great concert series,Kudos to unnati organizers :ymapplause: :ymapplause: :ymapplause: keep up the start at 06:00 Pm and dont go in the sometimes useless chennai way of starting at 7pm or making a two 90 minute combo in an evening which is just killing classicism of carnatic music and making it boring.

I join Rajesh in congratulating Unnati for featuring Sri Karaikudi Mani in their series (and the fact that he accepted the invitation to perform, which is a big deal).

Thanks Rajesh and Mahavishu.
Rajesh: Unnati always starts the concerts ON time every time.
That is one of the things that we want plan so meticulously.

Yes, Guru Karaikudi Mani is a big name and we are proud to bring him to Bangalore along with all other giants of Carnatic music.

Shanmu,
Starting on Time is somewhat a great thing- it is ok to be be late upto 20 mins, but ending before time is a problem . The biggest problem is not giving time to CM and making the concert and artist perform like a tv program. Can I assume the concert will go atleast till 9PM or do you give even more time if the artist wants to express more.
