  4. Her passing away Marks a huge vacume, her immense contribution will always be remembered for the decades to come. My heartfelt condolences to her family and her students and admirers. So proud of the fact that she was the first French disciple of Smt. M K Saroja.
    My naman to the departed soul.

  6. A French national learning Bharata Natyam, from Guru M K Saroja in the 60s is really admirable and the Mandapa Centre founded and maintained for so many years is indeed a great achievement. It is very sad to know that an artist like her is no more.
