A trained classical singer, Shwetha has been hearing us all this while. I am glad to see her today on the brighter side of the stage, or should i say the blog?? :-)

Samiir Halady, (you wouldn’t have missed him as the host of the latest Chutney Chat videos!!) brings to us a creative and energetic composition of Amit. He presents to us : A time for fun, a time for love!

ITS TIME FOR FUN _…

Srikala Nalkoor - Om Shanti Om
Mumbai

Deepika-pacchi ahemm padukone made GSBs proud by her cast in Om Shanti Om. The GSB involvement just got even better with Srikala presenting a song from the movie Om Shanti Om. Lets hope Shahrukh is replaced too by a GSB, so that our chendi chelli remains within the community :-P..

Jokes aside, here is a lovely debut performance by Srikala!

In our series of interviewing members of the Idli House Council (the team behind Radio Idli), Samiir Halady interviews our ever-smiling and sporting Abhang Gulvady.

Abhang is a software professional and works in Pune. He is an accomplished Tabla player and comes from a family of great Musical Maestros. In our group he is known for his magnificent levels of energy, though he defiantly appears as a silent smiling person in the corner. So here we go with Abhang’s interview (keep your speaker volume higher to hear the background music):
