TFAvideo Says:
Jun 6, 2008 - Pankhuri's arangetram was held last year Sept in Kuala Lumpur. The nattuvanar was Shankar Kandasamy and the vocalist Sampagodu S Vighnaraja.
sancharram Says:
Jun 6, 2008 - whats nattuvanar?
sancharram Says:
Jun 6, 2008 - what is this varnam about sounds like mine but its different words? mines is about someone asking her friend to bring her lover to her who is shiva
ardhanariswar Says:
Jun 6, 2008 - a nattuvanar handles the cymbals (thalam) and the rhythmic syllables (sollukattu during the jathi segements). Usually for an arangetram, the guru will do the nattuvangam and conduct the performance.
ardhanariswar Says:
Jun 6, 2008 - this varnam is by K.N.Dandayudhapani Pillai, not by Ponniah. I guess he wanted to follow Ponniah's varnam but change it up so its for krishna? dunno...
sancharram Says:
Jun 6, 2008 - oh ok i think i get it
sancharram Says:
Jun 6, 2008 - ooh cool! i wish i could learn every varnam but too much time and effort.
AdiVenk Says:
Jun 14, 2008 - The lover is not Shiva but Lord Venkateshwara.
