There would not be another day, when you keep thinking about the great Tamil scholar papanasham Shivan and his eminent songs for two continuous days, like marathon race. There would not be another day where you can listen to Young beautiful kids singing his songs with the sweetest of the tone. I’m talking about none other than the Papanasham Shivan Day conducted by the Shiva fine arts, at Kifer, Sunnyvale, California on May 9’th and 10’th. 

I could not believe I was in US, rather had a feeling as if I was walking in the streets  of Mylapore, Chennai. There were so many with Silk sarees, Half  sarees and pattu pavadai.  We had a chance to see all the bay area music teachers under one roof and their wonderful concerts. This function was all headed by Ashok Ramani, grandson of Papnasham Shivan. He performed a concert at the end of day. It was really a God given gift for us to enjoy the classic music in a beautiful way. The inclination towards the culture was too high among all the NRIS. Might be the fear of being away from the country triggers their involvement. But what ever May be the case, it was an amazing function to be in and cherished about.
