Regarding the Q " will any of the artistes dare to render non tygaraja songs at the tyagaraja aradhana"?

There was an incident a few years back. Sri Dandapani desikar was asked to give the inaugural concert at the Thyagara aradhana vizha at thiruvaiyaru.

He sang a tamil song & left.

What do U say to that?

It is another matter that a purification ceremony was performed soon thereafter.

I do not agree with Mr.Srinivasan that thamizh songs can be rendered in Thyagaraja aradhana.

The aradhana is mainly to commemorate the birth of Sri Thyagaraja & it is only befitting that his kritis are sung.

I do not see any chauvinisim in this.
