11th Dec marks the
birth anniversary of Desiya Kavi Subramanya Bharathi, considered
the icon of Tamil pride. A great poet, prolific writer, positive thinker, man
with progressive ideals, great visionary, genius ~ man who thought much ahead
of his times, the National poet lived only for 39 years.
Vanavil Panpattu Maiyam is organizing the poet’s Birthday as Four day celebrations to culminate
on 11th Dec 2013- at the very
place where he resided in Thiruvallikkeni, Thulasinga Perumal Kovil Street,
just opposite Lord Azhagiya Singar sannathi.
This morning the programme was off
to a grand start with ‘Murrothal’ – a joint singing of Bharathi’s poem – first by
group headed by Sri Satishkumar, then by Ila Ganesan of BJP, Mrs Logeswari, Dr
Swarnamalya Ganesh, Dr Va Ve Subramaniam,
Mrs Shobhana Ravi and Sri Veeramani Raju.
SYMA group (and Yours Truly)
accompanied Prof Va Ve Su in singing verses of Bharathi’s kannamma songs.
With regards – S. Sampathkumar.
9th Dec 2013.
