TM Krishna winning the Sangita Kalanidhi music award has created a huge uproar in the Carnatic music world. Numerous artists are coming forward and protesting against TM Krishna바카라s win.
A few days back TM Krishna was announced to be the winner of the Sangita Kalanidhi award by the music academy. However, this didn바카라t go down well with other Carnatic singers. So much so, they바카라ve all come out to protest against TM Krishna getting the award. Musical duo Ranjani and Gayatri were one of the first ones to register their displeasure at the award being given to TM Krishna. Soon enough Dushyanth Sridhar also marked his disapproval of the award going to TM Krishna.
Ranjani-Gayatri took to X (formerly Twitter) to announce that they shall withdraw their participation from the conference of the music academy as it would be presided by TM Krishna. Not only that, they would also abstain from performing at the music concert that is scheduled to happen on December 25.
Ranjani-Gaytri wrote in their statement, 바카라He has caused immense damage to the Carnatic music world, wilfully and happily stomped over the sentiments of this community and insulted most respected icons like Tyagaraja and MS Subbulakshmi. It is dangerous to overlook TM Krishna바카라s glorification of a figure like EVR (Periyar) who openly proposed a genocide of Brahmins, repeatedly called/ abused every woman of this community with vile profanity, relentlessly worked to normalise filthy language in social discourse (sic).바카라
Besides them, even Dushyanth Sridhar has penned a similarly worded letter to the President of the Music Academy. He has stated that he too wishes to withdraw from performing on January 1. He wrote that this would be disrespectful towards his gurus.
Vishakha Hari also took to social media to talk about this issue. She wrote, 바카라This year바카라s Sangeetha Kalanidhi designate awardee has engaged in a lot of slandering previously, hurting the sentiments of many tremendously and willfully (sic).바카라
While there have been so many people against TM Krishna winning the award, Chinmayi Sripada has supported his win. She didn바카라t talk of the controversy, but she congratulated him on winning the award. At the same time, she raised a few questions to Ranjani-Gayatri.
Neither TM Krishna nor the Music Academy has given a statement on these accusations. Let바카라s wait and watch what they have to say about the same.
