Is the naLinakAnti kRti manavi AlakincarAdaTE (manavyAlakincarAdaTE) or manavini AlakincarAdaTE (manavinAlakincarAdaTE)?

[srikant1987]

It was played as the former. The second would be more grammatically correct, but it's customary to skip some prepositions. For example, it is evari mATa vinnAvO, not evari mATani vinnAvO. In Tamil, we simply ask engE pOnAn, while in Telugu or Kannada ekkaDaki or elligE is how it is said.

[pattamaa]

a short concert ? was TNK magic was there ?

[srikant1987]

It was not particularly short. I also thought TNK had other plans, but the request came soon after tani. Since you asked, TNK magic was totally all-consuming in the malayamArutam. My observation was how there is so much life, so much energy, and yet so much peace, in this music.
