Post lunch, first up Ramana Balachandran.
I had to miss Smt Alamelu Mani's concert to get my lunch.
And the most awaited finale. Abhishek Raghuraman with H N Bhaskar and Vijay Natesan.
Final comments on the day.
Abishek's concert, esp Endharo alone, was paisa vasool for whole day.
All programs equally good and offered great variety of instrumental, vocal , legend, top star, promising youngster etc.
Food was a daylight robbery, and the quality horrible.

St Andrew's auditorium has excellent acoustics and rightly sized, though not in a great location for the suburban music enthusiasts. No food or other alternatives close by.
Audience was amazing. Abhishek finished 45 mins late, still 75% of the audience stayed and enjoyed.

Organization of 3M was excellent. Maakkolam, thoranam, mallippoo strings for women, all good. Only irritant was the first session compere mispronouncing every thamizh word including margazee!
3M is going to be a 2 day festival next year! Looking forward.
