They are little easy for the sisters it was like they were waiting for the volley ball to get served.RA picked it up a d GA went.smashing it. The Interviewer have well asked on TM Krishna s pretext, and sounded as if he had never heard about it. He might ask to Krishna directly the same.question , he is little bold to get away with his questions innocently like he asked Sid sriram about ullathil nalla ullam, as long as there is bo flaw , rasikas should not raise their voice, they are professionals they know what they are doing.

I am a non brahmin and have learned carnatic music. I chose not to proceed further due to my commitments in my family life. Music was available for me . People need to be introduced. Parents need to encourage children.
My guru says, the world of Carnatic music only has doors that open :) Once if liked, it will be a part of us in some or the other form in our lives, and I hope it does for you too!

This Interviewer.make people talk .they do not want to get into trouble, no one stops anyone learning .learning is ipublic and the listeners are scholars to do. Technical reviews on. Arabic music says sister Ga .so don't put us into trouble .your questions and TM Krishna have to go back to their table . We do t say not into our dustbins , with reverence because of the questions good intention. Mode of operation , methods of working is discriminatory and hence not valid . Fast food and carnatic was a joke .because music was a slow coach says sis GA
T M Krishna, whenever he talked, never appealed to me. He has some strong opinions about things just like every other human. Nothing more really. Just because he wrote a book, he talks in all kinds of settings - does not make his views right. how should people deal with someone from royal family. Whatever he says may not be of worth, but we do not propagate it, except in British TV or something 😊
The sisters, especially Gayathri always came across as a sharp minded intelligent person. But this one was ballsy! They just didn't mince words. And man, it was dignity glorified! If I were TMK, I'll take a very long time to face anyone who I think has watched this. The comparison between artiste and activist and that no one will support activism was bulls eye! Very beautifully and boldly articulated. Haven't heard any other artiste express their views so openly about TMK as the sisters have done. Not sure they were even asked though! Made my day! I'm very happy! All said, TMK is a very gifted singer and his style of singing and bringing the raga bhavam is unparalleled!
Krishna is no doubt an accomplished singer. But artistes should let their art speak rather than speak themselves! Krishna is a pompous foolish know-all who always 😢 goes overboard blinded by imagined importance of himself.

Everything they have said in this interview - be it about T M Krishna's silly antics aimed only at seeking publicity, be it about awards, political awareness, or about their very journey in the field of music - each response is a gem. I hope a lot more musicians follow their example. Full marks to the interviewer as well, for asking intelligent questions, without sounding BBC-ish (read nasty and supercilious)!

I guess they are more courageous and honest with a non hypocritical and clear thought. If u really think about it it's so true instead of creating divides u can actually get people in and make things happen rather than just pontificating on others. Mr.TMK knows only to spit on the same plate that has given him such enormous recognition and a living. If he was so worried about brahminical hegemony he should not have received the award citing the causes. So somehow he is okay getting an award yet targeting the practices of the Music academy. So all this goes for a lot of convenience and there is no realism in his ideas or thoughts. And Akkas were right in pointing out this and they never cared whether he got an award or not but it would have been their weakness if they would have supported this hypocrisy. Their stand takes a lot of courage and dignity and somehow they have showcased it effortlessly. Kudos to them
Musical genre is related to sociocultural background. Tamil folk music has select listener group, the same way carnatic music has. There isn’t a lot of cross Pollination between these groups. The door is open both ways but the followers are dictated by their socio cultural backgrounds. Even among, the so called “ Brahmin community “ Carnatic doesn’t have universal appeal, unless there is a culture or heritage of Carnatic music existing within the family. Carnatic will never have universal appeal like film music even if all the so called barriers are removed.
names may be different but carnatic and tamil music are the same, the music that Tyagarajar Swami heard was only from the saiva temples where nagaswaram music was predominant in Thanjavur
Enjoying or appreciating carnatic music rendered by a musician and its nuances requires certain minimum knowledge about carnatic music. Otherwise you cannot make ABCD out of it. All you will hear is a melodious sound .
Gayathri begins to speak around 4:12 but closes her mouth, bites her lips and nods her head patiently once she hears THE NAME waiting for him to finish the question! Her mind voice would be like "vaa di vaa!!"
Response on TMK query was apt. In last 10 years, TMK keeps raising this issue but his own actual actions in this regard are basically zero - just a lot of talking and putting the blame on "others" and writing articles, coming on TV and getting pubicity. About time someone called him out and it's a shame that more senior artistes in the CM community have kept silent on this. RaGa should be prepared for some nasty, negative feedback and some loud (but content-free) rebuttal from TMK - but the vast majority of CM listeners are solidly behind the sisters - don't back down.
Wow ...... Such a good interview ...... Thank you for bringing this to us !! It is ALWAYS A PLEASURE Watching and Listening to this duo . Their Singing is as DIVINE as their Pleasing Personality . God Bless Them . JAI SHRI RAM ....... JAI HIND ......
TMK can start his own school of music and start teaching students of his choice exclusively like Gurukulam. We wl even support him financially. He has only degraded himself by pointing out at others in a colourable way to gain cheap popularity.
Excellent Please I request both of you to maintain your stature Let T M KRISHNA should learn from these two. One more claps He wants politics Long back he has decided to become a HERO
Sri Ch'sekaran is a balanced and inteligent interviewer and RaGa were as wonderful, inteligent, loveable and great in this conversation as they they are shining jewels of carnataga sangeetham. I bless them to win all rewards as early as possible.
Very bold and on the face views echoed by the sisters. Appreciate their courage in voicing out their opinions and making like minded rasikas feel proud❤
Me too. But the way they disagree to the live streaming of their concerts is not fair. Last one being at Kapaleeswar Temple Mylapore. Really bad. Totally unacceptable
No holds barred views. Both were truthful in whatever they said. Answers were crisp and non diplomatic as Diplomacy fails when understood. Bravo and we are all proud of you both.
Well spoken by the Raga sisters.! Their clarity and confidence in expressing confirms the validity of their thoughts and they are very clear and right.!
The difference between Artist and Activist has been well articulated by RaGa sisters. TMK is a good artist, who has allowed the activist in him to take over and create controversies where non exist.
Ah finally some one had the guts to call this bluff out...... What TMK is doing no different than what DK did.....by calling Brahmins as villains ....to drive home their point....
Been a carnatic music lover/listener for 55+ years. Love TMK's for his soulful originality and innovation and RAGA's for their melody and mass appeal. No harm in being an Activist as well as a musician in these days of Engineer/CA/MBA musicians so long as there is no mix up. TMK is a thinker, writer, teacher, who has groomed some excellent young singers and winner of Magsasay. His original genuine grievance was the dominance of Chennai Sabhas' management being by a particular arrogant 'group' who roped in the popular Silk Brand owner for financial convenience. But for TMK's highlighting the recent Kalakhetra issue, it would have been brushed under the carpet. Now that RAGA are 'singing praise' of the so called Leaders that matter today, best wishes to them personally and hopefully for the future of Carnatic Music.🙏
Your views are trite. It's fashionable to target a certain group so as to project oneself as progressive only because it is incapable of violent reaction. This fellow TMK used to hang around Kakakshetra for days on end when Leela Samson was the Director. Let's believe no misconduct was reported from among instructors during that period.
Just as Gayatri Akka says in this video, Krishna wants to project himself a hero and villianise others which is wrong. I was also a fan of Krishna but nowadays, his trends have gone to the trash and he has started doing anything for publicity. I do not like him and I do not listen to his concerts now and my guru has also stopped attending his concerts and listening to his music. Krishna should avoid doing publicity stunts like these. Krishna should learn how to behave from his co artists like Shriramkumar Anna or Arun prakash Anna who have pursued music in its true dignity and faith.

We are brahmins . We are conducting Kuchipudi dance classes.we never differentiate between students. All our students belong to different communities. Let us stop talking about differentiation. differentiation.
Very well said by Raga Sisters- TM Krishna's comments over the years are off the board and it is getting bored.... To understand the Einstein equations, never lower the equation to your understanding... If the student is ready, teacher arrives is an age-old proverb. It is the inclination to learn Carnatic music or any other art-forms requires deep rooted commitment and involvement, rest everything will fall into place...

T.M. Krishna has performed with Nadaswaram Artists, Jogappa community of people (the little I know). They simply ask “Set marucha ?”. I wish they had known. Such ignorance.
Very true.. He is trying to change activism point of view as he wants to take attention from non brahmins like Dr. Sharmila , can I ask u all one question but u all have to say the truth only from the bottom of your heart .. how many people are mocking this carnatic music without knowing anything.. Please shouldn't blame brahmins for everything.. When u are ready to learn in classical, teachers will be ready when you have enough patience and desires to learn the higher level concept . It's not easy, everything related with maths, Grammer on that, sometimes u feel bore,getting disappointment at one point.. Otherwise you may have the great passion or you may have a strong roots in spirituality and without these above not able to learn carnatic, this message for all including brahmins.. I have seen in my own eyes ,how many kids can't succeed in this bcos lack of creativity knowledge, grammar may not be strong, or have issue in thalam part, everything has a certain rule and grammar is there.. Actually we people are welcome you all and feel proud of that whoever ready to learn carnatic. 🙏 xlent answer Madam.
The opinionated arrogance of people like TMKrishna (TMK) is very real & detrimental to safeguarding the underlying divinity of Carnatic music. The R& G sisters are spot on 🎯 However, CLASSICAL music of any genre' ...is NOT FOR SALE. It's not necessary that it has to be aggressively marketed like POP-ular music🤔 Thyagarja, Muthuswami Dikshitar, Swati Thirunal, Annamacharya, Purandaradasar, Sadasiva Brahmendrar...and the likes are all SAINTS with divine vision & creativity🙏 In the West composers like Beethoven, Mozart and such others .. are given similar divine status. The missionaries with whom the likes of TMK are collaborating...are hijacking the very IDENTITY of classical literature, arts & music...like they have been doing with the imagery & origins of Thiruvalluvar, Valallar, Bharathiar, UVe Swaminatha Ayyar...in TN...duly manipulated by local politicians. PL SPARE CARNATIC MUSIC from commercial exploitation ...if not... it'll be lost for good 🙃
Wow wow!! Wondering if these utterly privileged damsels had anything to say against the “me too” accused in Carnatic music! Have not seen them take a stand for anyone, please correct me if I am wrong! They say TMKrishna is creating a villain! Ranjani and Gayatri are creating a villain out of TM Krishna! They only want footfalls in the concert! So everyone can attend their concerts! Money galore of course!!! Mam, how many can make it to a stage? US dollars are flowing for concert slots! Only the super duper rich have a chance to make it! Someone who is standing up against all this nonsense is a hero! TM Krishna is hero! More power to you sir!!
NO DOUBT TM. KRISHNA IS A SUPER TALENTED GENIUS. I AM HIS DEVOTED FAN. BUT HE IS AN ECCENTRIC. HE UNNECESSARILY DILUTES THE DEVINE STATUS AND RESPECT OF MUMMOORTHYS DEVOTIONAL KIRTHYS TO ALLA AND YESU ETC AND THIS IS A GREAT DISRESPECT TO THE MOST ANCIENT KARNATIC MUSIC. NOT ONLY TMK DOES THIS . A FEW OTHERS LIKE NITYASRI AND ARUN AND OTHERS TOO DO THIS TYPE OF ACTIVITY FOR THE SAKE OF MONEY AND THIS IS HIGHLY OBJECTIONABLE.. HOPE THEY WILL NOT REPEAT IT. ABOVE ALL THIS SISTERS SAID EXCELLENT VIEWS ABOUT KARMAYOGI MODIJI AND ANNAMALI. AGAIN I REPEAT TMK IS A SUPER GENIUS AND IT IS A TRUE FACT.
8:15 He is implementing it. You might not know. He has taken so many underprivileged students from government music colleges and teaching them serious music himself. That is something not every musician can do. He will talk about them and get them on stage one day and then it will be a seruppadi for everyone who has put bad comments here.
I am sorry to say this but there are many Carnatic music teachers who have been doing this since a very long time. Shrimathi T Brinda is a great example. Not only that the Bombay sisters sponsored a huge number of students from underprivileged backgrounds for their concerts and learning through mukthambaram trust that they established. I see a lot of instagram posts where many vidwans perform many concerts in the government schools where actually many people have taken up music. So this is what RaGa Akkas are saying that everyone in their own bit are doing a lot for the Carnatic ecosystem to grow. Now for him to even say no one is doing I am the only one doing is definitely a Motherhood statement. It's very easy to say certain statements and villify a community and create divide. If he really wants to bring change he has to do it on his own in his own way and maybe publicise it for the news to reach everywhere so that people in need use it. But instead of that he is doing everything else. It's always good to have great intentions but it's also necessary that u do it in a proper way not like a dictator.
And another thing why should he force everyone to consume classical music. It's not necessary if people have the antenna towards it they will take it up. For the spread of Carnatic music he doesn't have to create divide among people by saying some rusted statements like brahminical hegemony. Secondly he has villified a lot of people who belonged to this art form . Firstly he said classical music isn't sacred, Tyagaraaja didn't speak about Rama, subbalakshmi was forced to be a brahmin and he could make out through expression. It's like he is spitting on the same plate that gave him subsistence for his life. So to spread Carnatic music this is not at all required. I think he has thought that if he does this people from other "backgrounds" will accept, sit and listen to music which is flawed at its own root. So he is just as these sisters rightly put out, seeking sensation much like all politicians to create a lot of divide without actual ground work. And believe me hundred years later too he wouldn't have achieved an inch of change by all this.
You both are honest Mam. TMK is opportunistic... when he was being an upcoming artist, he had never revealed his ideas, now he has full liberty to damage our tradition

Please I request both of you to maintain your stature
Let T M KRISHNA should learn from these two.
One more claps
He wants politics
Long back he has decided to become a HERO
Sri Ch'sekaran is a balanced and inteligent interviewer and RaGa were as wonderful, inteligent, loveable and great in this conversation as they they are shining jewels of carnataga sangeetham. I bless them to win all rewards as early as possible.
Very bold and on the face views echoed by the sisters. Appreciate their courage in voicing out their opinions and making like minded rasikas feel proud❤
Me too. But the way they disagree to the live streaming of their concerts is not fair. Last one being at Kapaleeswar Temple Mylapore. Really bad. Totally unacceptable

like the honest and candid statement. called out the bluff of TMK by asking "what has he done?" . kudos.
Sisters not only Good in singing but also in depth,giving interviews
No holds barred views. Both were truthful in whatever they said. Answers were crisp and non diplomatic as Diplomacy fails when understood. Bravo and we are all proud of you both.
Sabaash Ranjani & Gayatri.. Lovely.
Well spoken by the Raga sisters.!
Their clarity and confidence in expressing confirms the validity of their thoughts and they are very clear and right.!
TM KRISHNA is a bold thinker with only humanity in heart ❤️ Applaud 👏 him 👍
But he won't do it. He is attention seeker just that. He is not teaching anyone on his own. Yes he is bold best said by the sisters.
He is a tool kit for corrupt, criminal gang dmk.
Correcta pesiyirukka. Bold interview
The difference between Artist and Activist has been well articulated by RaGa sisters. TMK is a good artist, who has allowed the activist in him to take over and create controversies where non exist.

You mean K. J. Yesudas?
Ah finally some one had the guts to call this bluff out...... What TMK is doing no different than what DK did.....by calling Brahmins as villains ....to drive home their point....
Been a carnatic music lover/listener for 55+ years. Love TMK's for his soulful originality and innovation and RAGA's for their melody and mass appeal. No harm in being an Activist as well as a musician in these days of Engineer/CA/MBA musicians so long as there is no mix up. TMK is a thinker, writer, teacher, who has groomed some excellent young singers and winner of Magsasay. His original genuine grievance was the dominance of Chennai Sabhas' management being by a particular arrogant 'group' who roped in the popular Silk Brand owner for financial convenience. But for TMK's highlighting the recent Kalakhetra issue, it would have been brushed under the carpet. Now that RAGA are 'singing praise' of the so called Leaders that matter today, best wishes to them personally and hopefully for the future of Carnatic Music.🙏
Your views are trite. It's fashionable to target a certain group so as to project oneself as progressive only because it is incapable of violent reaction. This fellow TMK used to hang around Kakakshetra for days on end when Leela Samson was the Director. Let's believe no misconduct was reported from among instructors during that period.
Just as Gayatri Akka says in this video, Krishna wants to project himself a hero and villianise others which is wrong. I was also a fan of Krishna but nowadays, his trends have gone to the trash and he has started doing anything for publicity. I do not like him and I do not listen to his concerts now and my guru has also stopped attending his concerts and listening to his music. Krishna should avoid doing publicity stunts like these. Krishna should learn how to behave from his co artists like Shriramkumar Anna or Arun prakash Anna who have pursued music in its true dignity and faith.

Very well spoken by the sisters. Excellent interview
We are brahmins . We are conducting Kuchipudi dance classes.we never differentiate between students. All our students belong to different communities. Let us stop talking about differentiation. differentiation.
TMK has gone completely mad
Exactly correct
I agree

love the interview and questions - very different from other interviews :)
Very well said by Raga Sisters- TM Krishna's comments over the years are off the board and it is getting bored.... To understand the Einstein equations, never lower the equation to your understanding... If the student is ready, teacher arrives is an age-old proverb. It is the inclination to learn Carnatic music or any other art-forms requires deep rooted commitment and involvement, rest everything will fall into place...

T.M. Krishna has performed with Nadaswaram Artists, Jogappa community of people (the little I know). They simply ask “Set marucha ?”. I wish they had known. Such ignorance.
உண்மையை உரக்க சொல்ல தைரியம் வேண்டும். இந்த சகோதரிகளுக்கு அந்த தைரியம் இயற்கையாக அமைந்துள்ளது.
அழகான கருத்து!
Wow. Hard hitting honesty. Power to you.
Very true.. He is trying to change activism point of view as he wants to take attention from non brahmins like Dr. Sharmila , can I ask u all one question but u all have to say the truth only from the bottom of your heart ..
how many people are mocking this carnatic music without knowing anything.. Please shouldn't blame brahmins for everything.. When u are ready to learn in classical, teachers will be ready when you have enough patience and desires to learn the higher level concept . It's not easy, everything related with maths, Grammer on that, sometimes u feel bore,getting disappointment at one point.. Otherwise you may have the great passion or you may have a strong roots in spirituality and without these above not able to learn carnatic, this message for all including brahmins.. I have seen in my own eyes ,how many kids can't succeed in this bcos lack of creativity knowledge, grammar may not be strong, or have issue in thalam part, everything has a certain rule and grammar is there.. Actually we people are welcome you all and feel proud of that whoever ready to learn carnatic. 🙏 xlent answer Madam.

The opinionated arrogance of people like TMKrishna (TMK) is very real & detrimental to safeguarding the underlying divinity of Carnatic music. The R& G sisters are spot on 🎯 However, CLASSICAL music of any genre' ...is NOT FOR SALE. It's not necessary that it has to be aggressively marketed like POP-ular music🤔 Thyagarja, Muthuswami Dikshitar, Swati Thirunal, Annamacharya, Purandaradasar, Sadasiva Brahmendrar...and the likes are all SAINTS with divine vision & creativity🙏
In the West composers like Beethoven, Mozart and such others .. are given similar divine status.
The missionaries with whom the likes of TMK are collaborating...are hijacking the very IDENTITY of classical literature, arts & music...like they have been doing with the imagery & origins of Thiruvalluvar, Valallar, Bharathiar, UVe Swaminatha Ayyar...in TN...duly manipulated by local politicians.
PL SPARE CARNATIC MUSIC from commercial exploitation ...if not... it'll be lost for good 🙃
Superb! Tight slap!
Apka baatchit bohut acha laga ji ..thank you , Except ideology ..
Wow wow!! Wondering if these utterly privileged damsels had anything to say against the “me too” accused in Carnatic music! Have not seen them take a stand for anyone, please correct me if I am wrong!
They say TMKrishna is creating a villain! Ranjani and Gayatri are creating a villain out of TM Krishna!
They only want footfalls in the concert! So everyone can attend their concerts! Money galore of course!!! Mam, how many can make it to a stage? US dollars are flowing for concert slots! Only the super duper rich have a chance to make it!
Someone who is standing up against all this nonsense is a hero! TM Krishna is hero! More power to you sir!!
KB sir has brought up this idea through his movies Sindhu Bhairravi and Unnal mudiyum thambi so nicely

Well said Ranjani and Gayatri !!!
எல்லோராலும் கச்சேரிசெய்ய இயலாது ரசிப்பது என்பது எல்லோராலும் முடியும்.
NO DOUBT TM. KRISHNA IS A SUPER TALENTED GENIUS. I AM HIS DEVOTED FAN.
BUT HE IS AN ECCENTRIC. HE UNNECESSARILY DILUTES THE DEVINE STATUS AND RESPECT OF MUMMOORTHYS
DEVOTIONAL KIRTHYS TO ALLA AND YESU ETC AND THIS IS A GREAT DISRESPECT TO THE MOST ANCIENT KARNATIC MUSIC. NOT ONLY TMK DOES THIS . A FEW OTHERS LIKE NITYASRI AND ARUN AND OTHERS TOO DO THIS TYPE OF ACTIVITY FOR THE SAKE OF MONEY AND THIS IS HIGHLY
OBJECTIONABLE..
HOPE THEY WILL NOT REPEAT IT.
ABOVE ALL THIS SISTERS SAID EXCELLENT VIEWS ABOUT KARMAYOGI MODIJI AND ANNAMALI.
AGAIN I REPEAT TMK IS A SUPER GENIUS AND IT IS A TRUE FACT.
Very clear and profound thoughts communicated with confidence and conviction.

Music is Haram in Islam. Don’t even try to talk about music, Maulana will roast you!
Hello why are you commenting about Carnatic Music
Yes.. support!! Stop punidhapaduthifing music..it's a music that's all.. even donkeys can learn if they truly wish...by the way am not a Muslim 😅
Arumai wow thamizha
8:15 He is implementing it. You might not know. He has taken so many underprivileged students from government music colleges and teaching them serious music himself. That is something not every musician can do. He will talk about them and get them on stage one day and then it will be a seruppadi for everyone who has put bad comments here.
I am sorry to say this but there are many Carnatic music teachers who have been doing this since a very long time. Shrimathi T Brinda is a great example. Not only that the Bombay sisters sponsored a huge number of students from underprivileged backgrounds for their concerts and learning through mukthambaram trust that they established. I see a lot of instagram posts where many vidwans perform many concerts in the government schools where actually many people have taken up music.
So this is what RaGa Akkas are saying that everyone in their own bit are doing a lot for the Carnatic ecosystem to grow. Now for him to even say no one is doing I am the only one doing is definitely a Motherhood statement. It's very easy to say certain statements and villify a community and create divide. If he really wants to bring change he has to do it on his own in his own way and maybe publicise it for the news to reach everywhere so that people in need use it. But instead of that he is doing everything else. It's always good to have great intentions but it's also necessary that u do it in a proper way not like a dictator.
And another thing why should he force everyone to consume classical music. It's not necessary if people have the antenna towards it they will take it up. For the spread of Carnatic music he doesn't have to create divide among people by saying some rusted statements like brahminical hegemony. Secondly he has villified a lot of people who belonged to this art form . Firstly he said classical music isn't sacred, Tyagaraaja didn't speak about Rama, subbalakshmi was forced to be a brahmin and he could make out through expression. It's like he is spitting on the same plate that gave him subsistence for his life. So to spread Carnatic music this is not at all required. I think he has thought that if he does this people from other "backgrounds" will accept, sit and listen to music which is flawed at its own root. So he is just as these sisters rightly put out, seeking sensation much like all politicians to create a lot of divide without actual ground work. And believe me hundred years later too he wouldn't have achieved an inch of change by all this.
You have hit the nail on the head of TMK
These women are from mumbai...They should do Modi & Annamalai politics there..They should be driven away from TN if they do politics..

Wow fantastic interview 👍
Arumayana interview 🎉
These two sisters are blessed by Bhagawan and so His presence will be in their thoughts and philosophy also!
Total understanding of Carnatic music comes from inside listeners' purity of hearts, not thru aptitudes..
Very bold and fearless response. Hats off to Ranjani and Gayathri
Excellent replies......
Great ,for speaking the truth .,do not worry about any comments from others,as truth always faces criticism
Padhmashri KUNNAKUDI Vaidyanathan took Carnatic music to the public without offending anyone. T M Krishna is a dot in this musical universe.
