There are about 35 Ramothswa banners in Bengaluru, starting in the music season, which starts with distribution Kosambri and Panaaka To defeat the summer wave which is part of this Ramnavami ceremony.
So, what does Shri Ramseva Mandali set in the Fort High School ground in Chamrajpet? SN Varadaraja, son of founder SV Narayanasavayamay Rao (known as SVN Rao), says, in many places in Karnataka, especially Mysore, Ramnavamy were celebrated with music, decorations and food. In 1939, his father SVN Rao established this congregation with the aim of integrating various festive practices.
The initial three -day ceremony that marks the love of founders for music, now in its 87Wan Year. Vardraj says, “The most respected name in classical music from all over India has caught this temple of music because C. Rajagopalachiri said it, as even the erstwhile Mysore was the patron of the Royals troupe.”
“This year, we will have a total of 56 concert programs from 6 April to 2 May, besides Ramayana’s discourses. The 27-day offer will watch the troupe platform as 225 artists.” Varadaraja says that the incident will play in 40,000 sqft waterproof Pandal With 6,000 seats and LED screens.
Goodwill and grandeur
Varadaraj recalls the early years when SVN Rao will book the star artists on the telephone, which will offer them ₹ 20 as an advance. “Neither Kembai nor his student, Yasudas accepted a peasa; singer Balmurali Krishna was given RA 12 for his concerts; Sarod Mestro Amjad Ali Khan considered his performance, ‘service to the Lord’.”
Varadaraja says, Violin Chaudiah and Ms. Sabbalakshmi will immediately donate what he received during Ramnavamy, while Mandolin Shrinev will humblely accept only divine blessings, says Varadaraja. “The top names of Karnataka such as RK Srikantan and Veena Doreswamy Eynger were given ₹ 500 for their concerts from Chennai to Mridivist Umilapuram Shivraman from Chennai.”

Musical motivation
Due to the encouragement and passion of SVN RAO and Ghatam exposure KS Manjunath, many Ram Seva Summites and Mandlis began taking shape in the city. About 120 years ago, compounder Subba Rao started the Ram Bhakta Sabha and SVN Rao started his congregation in Chamarajpet in 1939. Soon, every region of the city resonated with music during Ramnavamy, and eventually came to be known as the ‘Sangeet Weather of Bangalore’.
In the early 1940s, Narayanaswamy was introduced in Violin’s veteran T Chaudiah and Flute Mahalingam, both developed a quick affection for the circle and its purpose. Their strategy of helping the Ramseva troupe flourishing and flourishing was simple – to perform with bonuses to get stars that Chaudih would come with them on their violin.
Gradually, the fame of the congregation increased and the connoisseur people will have to eagerly wait for the program listing to book a month in advance. “Today, we have a high digital access. After announcing the program on our Facebook page this year, we had more than 4.1 million clicks,” Abhijeet Varadaraja says, which helps his father SN Vardaraja to run the congregation.
