Unexpected miracle at Kapali Temple - 1993 - Young Saketharaman

This video was taken on Christmas Day, 1993, in Chennai, during the early morning bhajan processions around the KapAli Temple. A young boy was asked to sing by the group leader, Ashok Ramani (grandson of PaapanAsan Sivan). He produced something that the small audience around him scarcely expected from such a young one. Watch how he sings with full concentration, oblivious to the high road noise, and in full devotion. He renders the thOdi kriti, kArtikEya gAngEya. This boy’s name is Saketharaman; he is now a professional vocalist. Helping him initially with the sruti is his sister, who is none other than the famous Visaka Hari.
