The Arangetram of Ashvin Hari, a disciple of the distinguished Poovalur Sriji, was a vibrant celebration of music, culture, and devotion. With a team of extraordinarily talented artists and a dedication to the rich tradition of classical music, this event was one of the largest Arangetrams witnessed in the community. Ashvin’s performance was not just a personal milestone, but a beautifully crafted display of artistry and tradition, supported by a close-knit team of like-minded volunteers who ensured the event's success.

The seamless video, audio, and live streaming were made possible by a dedicated technical team:

Food and Venue

The delicious food catered by Atithi Venue added the perfect flavor to the evening. The variety and taste, especially the dal and rasam, left everyone wanting more. Hemanth and Sai, who stayed on their toes throughout the day, ensured that everything ran smoothly, from the audio to the lighting, making this venue a prime choice for events of such grandeur.
