SC division bench issued notice to Madras Music Academy and Carnatic musician TM Krishna, who stands accused of ‘disrespecting’ Subbulakshmi in articles he wrote.
According to petition by MS Subbulakshmi's grandson, the legendary singer's will explicitly states there should be no trust, foundation, or memorial in her name after her passing.
Krishna has slandered an entire community in the name of freedom of speech. But Brahmin musicians numerically dominate the field due to a complex mix of socio-economic factors, not casteism.
Madras Music Academy conferring Sangita Kalanidhi on T.M. Krishna has raised a storm in Carnatic music circles. He had boycotted academy over 'Brahmanism' & 'corruption' in 2015.
Sisters condemn letter from Music Academy chief N. Murali about their decision to withdraw from its conference, accuse him of trying to 'build a narrative and cast aspersions' on them.
Six musicians & vocalists have pulled out of The Music Academy, Madras’s annual music festival after it announced that TM Krishna would be honoured with the Sangita Kalanidhi.
TM Krishna being conferred with Sangita Kalanidhi title has led Carnatic musicians to boycott the academy's annual conference. Hurt Brahmin sentiments are now playing the victim card.
The lyrics begin with lines: ‘He was the one who told us to think/Our Elder Periyar’. The song then urges listeners to question caste discriminations, injustice and untouchability.
It’s a geopolitical game changer. US, now, has primacy over oil-producing allies and adversaries alike — whether it’s Saudi Arabia or Iran, Nigeria or Russia.
The latest comment comes as New Delhi and Washington have yet to sign a trade agreement. India’s purchase of Russian oil has reduced, but Moscow remains top source for crude.
If deal goes through, Greece will be 2nd foreign country to procure vehicle. Morocco was first; TATA Group has set up manufacturing unit there with minimum 30 percent indigenous content.
Many of you might think I got something so wrong in National Interest pieces written this year. I might disagree! But some deserve a Mea Culpa. I’d deal with the most recent this week.
Ram and his brother Murali have an iron grip on the Music Academy and twist the other office bearers to do whatever he wants. His intentions are quite despicable. Hindu used to be the go to read for any Chennaiite in the olden times. But look at it now. It is a mouthpiece of the DMK and Periyarists.
TM Krishna is just a puppet. The puppeteer is N Ram, former editor-in-chief of The Hindu.
N Ram has always been a master of the art of creating mischief. In this aspect, he is way more talented than even the infamous British.
Mr. N Ram is the one who conjured up the Rafale “scam” just months before the 2019 general elections. He is the man responsible for the ongoing internal strife in the world of Carnatic music.
Mr. TM Krishna is just an idiot who is dancing along. The tunes and the beats are Mr. Ram’s.
