It is with greatest pleasure, I report to all of you that we received the lyrics of 150 Annamayya Keertanalu from Sri Medasani Mohan, Director, Annamacharya Project, Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam. The lyrics of 150 keertanas that need to be composed were handed over to me in the Venkateswara Temple of Himayatnagar in Hyderabad. The priest of the temple blessed the script and was handed over to SiliconAndhra in the presence a few Annamachrya Project people. It is a great feeling to hold the script in hand as each kriti mentions the number of the Tamra Patram and the name of the raga. The thought of that those were written by pada kavitha pithamahudu about 550 years ago itself is so overwhelming. Now we have the privilege and responsibility of composing music to these keertanalu and taking them into public to popularize Annamayya padaalu further. Let us all aspire to make the Annamacharya Raga Ragini Project a GRAND Success.
