Nithyasree Mahadevan: Carnatic (S. Indian) Vocal Recital

Don't use the South Indian quote.
No North Indians are using North Indian term.

Nithyashree you are the best.... love all your songs

This might sound stupid but i'm really curious...
The violinist's last name is KRISHNAswamy, but the don't the white lines on his forehead mean that he's a Shiva devotee?

His surname wouldn't determine his sectarian affiliation.

Thanks!

originally perhaps, but I think the same thing happened with names like Taylor or Thatcher, that did describe the individual's profession (or sectarian affiliation, in this case), but no longer do today. I know this to be the case with (profession-related) european surnames because of guilds and their heredity. I'm assuming the same happened in India, mainly because of caste system (and its strict heredity)

Yeah, Even I feel it is Kuranji.

if she sings so easily at this pitch i wonder how high she can go!!1

I don't understand a word but i fucking LOVE IT!!!

If she'd only tone down the fireworks and pitch her voice lower she'd rise beyond mere playing to galleries and be a worthy granddaughter of pattamal.
