BJP in power has seen this and more! Every year this happens, despite who is in power! Spare the drama please!

Bangalore has been totally messed up with that metro and other new urban infrastructure, most of which was totally unnecessary!

So stop imagining stupidly!
Bangalore was a planned city keeping a thousand lakes in and around. By the 1960s, only 280 of those remained. Today we don't have even 80 of them. What happened to the rest? Land sharks with their illegal encroachments, backed by corrupt builders and governments!
Now rain waters are reclaiming what is their original land!

Those who are living on such land must drown and die! Nature is merciless!

Did you know Majestic bus stand was once a lake? Dharmambudi Kere!

In rural Bangalore they prayed to 'Kere Devaru', or god of lakes!

Birth centenary of my beloved Guru Garu, Pouranika Sarvabhouma, Pravachana Chakravarthy, Veda Brahmasri Malladi Chandrashekhara Sastry Garu!

Truly, once in a century does someone of his eminence walk this earth!

Chirasmaraneeya!

न भूतो न भविष्यति!

🙏🏼☺️🙏🏼☺️🙏🏼 Image
One of the greatest achievements in my life was to get his appreciation. Something impossible to get! He was not an easy person to please! Brutal in his opinion and candid in his words, he called a spade a spade!

His and Amma Garu’s warmth and love is a lifetime blessing!

🙏🏼☺️ Image
An old thread when he passed away , three years ago.

Miss his presence around always!

Countless stories of courage in every corner! A thousand sacrifices! No colour, caste, creed, age...all of them were Aasthikas. Poets, dancers, scholars, writers, Jeeyar Swamys, commonfolk...All diehard devotees of Sri Ranganathaswamy.

We must never forget their sacrifices! 🙏🥹 Image
That is the iconic Vella Gopuram or the White Gopuram of Srirangam.

Painted white for posterity, in memory of the great Vellayi Ammal, a Devadasi in service of Lord Ranganathaswamy in the temple.

Her sacrifice for the lord and for Dharma is immeasurable! And inspiring!

🥹🙏
Yesterday outside the same Gopuram, 12000 lamps were lit. To honour the memory of all those who sacrificed their lives for protecting our Dharma!

May their Bhakthi inspire us! 🥹🙏🏼 Image

One for this lovely evening! 🤩🙏🤩

An old song gets a new life!

In the 1940s, Andhra was caught in being highly inspired by Bengali literature. Telugu writers and literary figures tried to emulate similar content in their works.

Short thread!

@_RamanaB_
Sharatchandra Chattopadhyay's famous novel 'Devdas' was made into an opera in 1940. It had over two dozen songs. This particular song was composed by the great Balantrapu Rajanikantha Rao Garu. However it never made it into the final opera but became extremely popular on radio.
It was sung by another stalwart Carnatic classical musician Sri Voleti Venkateswarlu. It became a hit and later Rao regretted not including it in the opera.

Decades later the same song was taught by veteran Vidwan Sri Malladi Suribabu Garu to our favourite @_RamanaB_. 🤩🙏🏼
