      This was part of carefully organised masterclasses with hereditary teachers and their apprentices. There is a documentary in the making that includes a properly filmed version of the varnam, showcasing both the teaching and the performance. This video is for educational purposes, to help understand how to vocalise the song. Pay special attention to the anupallavi and how “modi” should, or rather should not, be emphasised. In context, it makes all the difference in the Abhinaya.
