RELEASE OF BOOK AND CD-ROM ON 11th SEPTEMBER 2004 (9/11)

The hard work of over 1000 hours put in by me and my team of Balaji, Madan Prakash, Ganapathy, Aarthi, Sudarshan and many others for the last one year saw its fruition on 11th September 2004 when the book and CD-ROM- 108 Divya Ragams were released at an elegant function at Integral Club on 11th September.

Three eminent persons- Padmabhushan Madurai T.N.Seshagopalan, a top Carnatic musician: Dr.Prameela Gurumurthy, Head of The Music Department, University of Madras and Mr. Rajiv Menon, noted film Director and Cinematographer, my wife Mrs. Amritha Parthasarathy, who is also the publisher and a sizeable audience all from varied fields but connected by the common thread of Carnatic music were there. The function was very ably compered by my niece Urmila Devanathan.

The coverage by the media, particularly in The Hindu and Express has generated a tremendous enthusiasm. I am happy and relieved.
