The Prince and the King

A very rare and precious clipping of a young Prince Rama Varma singing before his illustrious ancestor, Maharaja
Chithira Thirunal Balaramavarma, the last Maharaja of Travancore. I've never heard Varmaji call himself Prince
though that is what most people in the music field call him.
He always claims that the last truly royal person in his family was Maharaja Chithira Thirunal, who was Varmaji's grand uncle whom he loved very much. I find it fascinating how Varmaji's voice has developed over the years when I watch his old videos.
