The svarAs are as follows: nATa, kEdAra, hamsadhvani, gauLa, Arabhi, Ahiri, bAgeshrI, Anandabhairavi, amrtavarShiNi, darbAr, kalyANavasanta, hamsAnandi, rEvati, dEsh, valaji, kadanakutUhala, nIlAmbari, bauLi, bilahari, kApi.
There is a snip of tODi beween 1:06 and !:08 after which kApi continues and the RTP end with a short tani.

Number of concerts sangeetha kalanidhi TNS has been amazing without asingle slip - thousands.
Number of concerts where he has had a few sruthi slips due to his age and adapting to a voice with new limitations a couple.
Funny what you folks remember :P

I concede TNS is the most gifted CM performer today who can astound you with his vidvat. While not mocking his shruti problems I just wanted to draw attenton to his amazing skill in handling so many ragas in quick succession!
