[KVasundhara]

The launch of Ravikiran's monumental work could not have been at a better place than world renowned Cleveland Tyagaraja Aradhana, on the auspicious day of 26th March 2016, by anyone more apt than Sangeetha Kalanidhi Sri T.N.Krishnan and Sri V.V.Sundaram Sir.
Sri T.N. Krishnan spoke how well he has known Ravikiran from the age of 2 and what great heights he has reached at this young age. He congratulated Ravikiran in completing the concert worthy tuning of Tirukkurals in a record time 16 hours. He emphasized how this bridged the great Tiruvalluvar's morals with Carnatic classicism enriching both arenas.

Sri Sundaram Sir was equally appreciative and proud to be part of this historic achievement. A sample presentation of the tuned Tirukkural and speeches of Sri Trichy Sankaran and Smt Aruna Sairam were played. Others who have given video tributes to this include Smt Sudha Raghunathan, Sri Neyveli Santhanagopalan, Smt Nityashree Mahadevan, 4-time Grammy winner Glen Velez, Rhythm Vocalist Lorie Cotler and others.

Ravikiran thanked Sri T.N. Krishnan, Sri V.V. Sundaram and the entire committee for launching this great project as well as his colleagues in the music field. He also said that the entire 1330 Tirukkurals rendered by top and talented artists will be released in batches in youtube in Chitravina N Ravikiran Music channel over the next few weeks.
