I could not find a separate thread..
What prompted me is a posting by a viewer........
"What a voice and what grace. At times i wonder Ghana Saraswathi incarnating as her.
Visual appeal matched only to the grace and quality of singing. Tonal modulations and such. Some singers deliver good music but it takes a tolerance to 'watch' them perform.
Watch Shobana Vignesh's facial expression. What divine grace. Video after video.
How come there is no wiki about her for benefit of those that wanted to admire a little more about her. "
What he says is true.. I also used to like her rendering so much..
I searched for her profile...
Hailed as a prodigy, Shobana Vignesh is considered one of the leading performing and recording Carnatic musicians in India. She has both musical legacy and phenomenal talent. Schooled in the Carnatic system of music by stalwarts in the field like Sri Swamimalai Janakiraman and Prof. T.R. Subramaniam from the age of five, Shobana had already stunned thousands with her prodigious talent by the time she touched her teens. Her most recent and notable achievement has been the honor of receiving the ‘Young Achiever Award’ for 2007 in the field of Carnatic music by the highest circulated magazine in India, ‘India Today’.
She is fondly known as ‘Mahanadhi’ Shobana for her brilliant performance as a child actor and singer in the National award winning movie ‘Mahanadhi’ in the year 1994. She has blossomed from a child prodigy into one of the most valuable and versatile artistes in the music field.

She is one of the top selling artists of Carnatic and Devotional music in India.
Vocalist Mahanadhi Shobana’s voice has an inherent blend of sweetness and depth. She displays an astonishingly expressive range, acquired no doubt through meticulous training and practice. This research scholar in music, tutored by Swamimalai Janakiraman and Prof. T.R. Subramaniam, has a touch of class and polish in her delivery.
EDUCATION
Shobana’s musical talents and academic expertise are unique. In addition to her acclaim and success as a performing artist, Shobana has very high academic credentials in the music field.
