========================================================
What a spell bound concert with mesmerizing voice. The jam packed venue with audience standing looking for seats and finally ended up sitting on the floor enjoyed every minute of over two hour concert. It is very difficult to judge which one was the best in the evening. While his Hariharaputha took us to KVN’s days, kshitijA ramaNam dEva gAndhAri was just outstanding . His Kalyani alapana and Thalli ninu (main krithi)took the rasikas to different plane. The Alwar pasuram ushered us in to Markazhi month and Ninyako ninna hankyako ninna was divine.

One vocalist in CM today who sings with perfect sruti and in the most traditional way. Great repertoire, great voice, crisp music. excellent manodharmam. One singer I enjoy listening to the most.
