Profile - T.A.Rajalakshmi Ammal: A fountain of hereditary repertoire- M.Venkatakrishnan

It was in the year 1989 that I started learning from Thiruvidaimarudur T.A. Rajalakshmi Ammal. After she came back from Calcutta, she was staying in Pattinapakkam, Chennai. Then she moved back to her native place in the early 80’s and that is when she started teaching at Janaranjani Sabha, Kumbakonam. Unfortunately, one day she fell from the bus and had a knee injury.
