This was indeed a function where in the Bridegroom family had invited around 50 - 60 senior citizen from old age homes near Chennai and they were with the family for the whole day. It was really a great thought by this family and i think all of us should think on these lines. Yes the inmates of the old age homes were really moved by this gesture and were seen very happy as some one have invited them for the function like their own family members.
It was a concert were we performed the Athichudi composed by myself sung by my parents and it came out well too. In this Ananthakrishnan anna who normally plays violin was singing Hindustani and we did two numbers on Kaapi and kalyani as a jugalbandhi. This was indeed a trial for us for the performance to be done on the 1st Dec'07 at Bharat Kalachar. Karaikal Venkat anna on violin, Rajagopal uncle on tabla, Arjun Ganesh anna on mrudhangam, Hair anna on ghatam, Suri uncle on Bass guitar and Thirunavukarusu uncle on the audio were at their best. Special mention about the great drum Maestro "Sivamani" uncle's brother Premkumar uncle who was enhancing the concert and also gave a 5 mts solo. On the whole it was a great satisfying day of concert.
