The concert started with a nice rendition of the tODi kriti and the srIranjani svarams were good. The sahAnA AlApanai was done well. The kalyANi AlApanai was good. The kriti was rendered with neraval and svarams at 'kalilO dinarakshaki'. The main mukhAri AlApanai was very moving. The kriti was rendered well with amazing neraval and svarams at 'IkulEni malayamArutamucE'.

Sri Prasanna sang well with a lot of bhavam. His ideas wery extraordinary and made a good impart. Sri Sivakumar on Violin was a trifle below sruti. He gave good replies to the main artist. Sri Sivakumar on mrudangam was good also.

I've heard quite a lot of his music when he was a resident of Mumbai. He's a wonderful singer and a credit to his Gurus.

Hi rbharath and Prashant,

I have listened to his keeravani in narada gana sabha mini hall. It was very good. His style is very good. He has at times influence of Sanjay but it is rather exhibition of the sanjay school than imitating him. I pray that he comes up sucessfuly when he is young.
