RagA sisters gave a fabulous grahabedha lecdem .As of now that is fresh in everyone minds . Even though the pallavi was in different ragas /rasas of kannada and kAnada - following up with pallavi swaragamaliga is brilliant.And more importantly there is a chance that emote would have been not high with different kanadas and kannadas - with they doing nilamani/shriranjani is super brilliant as to me no raga can bring more audiences than shivaranjani .

Keep it up sisters .Marketing at its best(not implying marketing is a bad thing every one does it from abhilash/abhishek to vijaysiva) . I wish I was there to hear that pallavi atleast (HNB and Saigiridhar are lovely artist)- to get a subjective feel of how the pallavi and swara ragamaliga was.

By the way if I remember right between mandasudharani or pantula rama they sang a pallavi with this kAnada or kannada combination. Or was it done even before . some one can refresh my memory there.

@rajeshnat : RaGa sang the same pallavi in Brahma Gana Sabha in Dec 2015.

Rajesh,
The transition from one rAgA to the other was seamless, and both sisters in turns made it happen.

They also rendered a number of kannaDa songs which delighted the audience.

[hnbhagavan]

The applauding was more due to popularity and it created unnecessary disturbance at times.I feel the concert would have attained greater heights,but the mridangam accompaniment was more of bang type and the smooth touch was absent.
However the sisters performed well and i liked the announcements which helped persons like me to follow.
