From: Aakarsh <[email protected]> Subject: [arr] The man who made ARR's harmonium To: [email protected] Date: Friday, 18 December, 2009, 11:14 AM Hi! All, Kanagaraj, a 70+ year old harmonium maker, says: "Being a close friend of music director Sekar, I made a baby box for his son, A.R. Rahman. I have made professional boxes for Rahman as well, and to date, he uses the ones crafted by me."

Even at this ripe age, he ekes out a living by repairing harmoniums of any make." Regards Kamal Aakarsh Vishnubhotla. http://kamal- aakarsh.blogspot .com The INTERNET now has a personality. YOURS!
