Like 'me' has said, she is very humble. She performed at our University in 2006 and we got to spend sometime with her before the concert. She was kindal adichufying her violinist and tabla artist and everyone else whom she could spot :)) <BR/>And she never tires too! Her flight got delayed by a few hrs that day, the concert started at around 5 and she sang for 4 hrs! We had to plead with her to stop because we could feel our throats dry up and hurt, she said okay, sang 2 more audience requests and then bowed!Priyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11535326222601384563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14833628.post-55449469396765228162008-07-14T12:46:00.000-07:002008-07-14T12:46:00.000-07:00That sounds like a fabulous concert.. thanks for r...That sounds like a fabulous concert.. thanks for reminding me of Marukelera - love that.
