Thodi Ragaam is my mother's favorite ragam . My favorite ragam too.I have grown in a music family. When I was young my mother used to keep singing "katthana Vaari" I am never tired of this specific ragam . Aaha Arpudam Abhishek

[@narayananvijayakumar1749]

Excellent

[@rangarajann7853]

exceptionally beautiful Thodi !!! reminds of Madura Mani Iyer.. God Bless you Abhishek

[@MoniVHS]

I am reminded of Sri Madurai Mani Iyer, whose Thodi was one of the favourites for all the Rasikas in those days . Very Soothing . Moni

[@RCSEKAR67]

Very nice. The Thodi he sings is very soothing. If you hear the thodi rendered by him with VVS Sir at Karubithil Shibra one will be amazed
