I went, I listened, and left depressed. I am talking about this much-hyped concert that happened on Saturday.
Indian music icons Pandit Hari Prasad Chaurasia, M Balamurali Krishna and L Subramanian will come together to perform on a single platform on March eight in the city.
It was supposed to be the first-ever jugalbandi of its kind, [...]
Those familiar with Bangalore don’t want me to remind them of Cubbon Park.

I sneaked in through a small lane right adjacent the KGID building in the ramparts of [...]

I vividly remember the long trek to my cousin’s house from the bus stop at what is now popular as “Deve Gowda petrol bunk.” The only other landmark was the Kamakhya [...]
