Accolades from Music Lovers for the Aradhana Festival 2018:

Dear Sri. Anantharam,

I am an annual member of the academy. I want to congratulate you for the successful completion of the 26th Aradhana. The programme was memorable.

I especially want to thank you for the SHAALE broadcast of the programmes. On a few days I could not come physically to the programme, but enjoyed the same at home. This is boon for the elderly.

Thanking you again and wishing you long life and best wishes for the success of activities of the academy.

Best Wishes,

R. Srinivasa Murthy, Professor of Psychiatry (Retd) Bangalore, INDIA
