Common mortals dress like their most loved Carnatic geniuses. Truly?
The Chennai music season in December and all that it involves has some favor authors in a turn. Past the standard measurements of smooth tunes and shining soirees, the alliterative descriptors make it appear just as the celebration envelops huge masses of Chennai occupants. There is without a doubt a surfeit of traditional music shows, some of them fabulous. However, truly it concerns a little extent of audience members, supplemented to some degree by their kind rolling in from outside countries for the occasions. A large portion of Chennai goes ahead as some time recently. Like some legacy locales, which seem vast and sweeping in pictures, yet are disappointing when experienced physically, the season, however extraordinary, is much littler than it is made to appear.
I have assembled the twelve most odd cases I have experienced in the media about the acclaimed music season in Chennai, and incorporated two or three music tracks that are in a lighter vein.
'Tis without a doubt the season to be chipper, Carnatic style!
1. "More than 300 scenes in Chennai deliver very nearly 5000 shows or more!"
Indeed, around 30-odd settings are the destinations for around a thousand shows.
2. "All of Chennai breaks into music and move."
All of Chennai is absolutely breaking into tune and move, yet it is outside ATM machines. Around a thousand entertainers (all included) oblige the established music swarm. This is a huge number, yet given that Chennai is more than 7 million inhabitants, this claim is a long way from reality.
3. "Indeed, even the cab drivers and auto-rickshaw drivers of Chennai know which sabha is well known and which isn't."
Chennai's cab drivers are for the most part individuals from the areas, who don't know Chennai streets all that well, not to mention what a sabha is. Similarly as with wherever else, film star homes and legislator addresses keep on being the best-known points of interest. With respect to auto-rickshaws, they keep on existing in their very own universe, one where meters at times work.
4. "Ask any tyke and she will know the contrast between TM Krishna and Sanjay Subrahmanyam."
Likewise with most little kids, the essential distraction of Chennai's children is school occasions. They have no clue who both of these people is, a great deal less that the previous has quit singing amid this season.

5. "Amid the music season, the very air in Chennai has the fragrance of jasmine, and an awesome show of Kanjeevarams that lets you know you have in reality touched base at the Mecca of established music."
Right now, the air is perfumed with the fragrance of rotting tree spoil taking after Cyclone Vardah. Material shopping proceeds as usual, but dulled by the absence of money. The show of overrated jasmine and antiquated Kanjeevarams is principally limited to nostalgic NRIs, who treat a portion of the prime scenes as the nobility treat Ascot in England.
6. "This is the heart of the Carnatic business."
A brief time prior, a companion of mine who works in arrangement research and I assessed that the extent of the Carnatic music biological system in dollars (or rupees) makes it likened to a cabin industry, if mechanical terms ought to be utilized by any means. Obviously, there is no money related gauge to the elusive euphoria it conveys to those intrigued by it, however to portray it hence may appear a play aggressive.
7. "The music season is the time when standard mortals like us look to Carnatic geniuses to show our design sense and adorn in like manner."
This is a myth that reaches out from the emanation of the late amazing MS Subbulakshmi, whose decision of a specific shade of saree was utilized viably by a noteworthy retailer to help his year-end deals. The normal Chennai occupant keeps on being unaffected by the style tastes of Carnatic artists.
8. "Indeed, even a youngster in Chennai can tell if an artist goes off-key."
As a music instructor, I can just regret this, however attractive, is a long way from genuine. Increasingly's the pity!
9. "Indeed, even the neighborhood radio stations offer Carnatic toll."
Like most media organizations, the neighborhood radio stations are income subordinate. The vast majority of them keep on playing film music and talk with prevalent film performing artists and identities. The odd stations do, be that as it may, communicate interviews with Carnatic artists and play their music at a young hour in the morning.
10. "The season reaches out from mid-November to mid-January."
While this is unquestionably valid for the show date-book, the real season, known as Margazhi, falls between December 15 to January 15 (as per that specific month in the Tamil logbook).
11. "Significant eateries spruce up their insides and serving Carnatic-themed sustenance."
This one was the hardest for me to break, as I was uncertain about what Carnatic-themed sustenance even implied. Real eateries (as far as ubiquity or advance) in the city essentially attempt to gain by the Christmas-New Year Christmas season, and serve an assortment of dishes that draw in families, including an extensive assortment of non-veggie lover sustenance, which by definition couldn't be Carnatic-themed, however hard we attempt.
12. "It is without a doubt the best time to visit Chennai."
This, without uncertainty, is very. With the climate being wonderful, and the delicate paced city developing much gentler, it is a stunning season to be sure. In spite of all the false bits of gossip, the music is very brilliant.
Joyful X'mas and all the best for the New Year!
