It was inspiring to witness Sankeerthana Ganam of Pada Kavitha Pitamaha Tallapaka Annmacharya as part of 607th Annamayya Jayanti Celebrations organised by Sujanaranjani at Saptaparni. Ever since its inception Sujanaranjani in Sanathnagar took a lead in promoting Annamayya Sahityam along with Trinity under the stewardship of Mahidhara Seetharama Sarma, secretary of the organisation, winning acclaims from the music circles.
The organisation released two books of Annamayya Keerthanas for the benefit of the general public.The main attraction of the evening was the vocal recital by Sattiraju Venumadhav. The sought after musician Sattiraju Venumadhav already released a book and CD ‘Annamayya Padamandakini’ consistsing 108 keerthans for which he provided notations which proved to be a feather in his cap.

He started his recital with ‘Hariki Harini Lankaku’ (Hamsadhwani) followed by an innovative Raga Karjamu (Janya of Sooryakantam) ‘Neevu Kaligina Chalu’ which is similar to Raga ‘Bhatiyar’ of Hindusthani. He rendered Swarakalpna in brief and threw open Hindusthani flavour sumptuously. He then gave a beautiful rendition in raga ‘Mohana’ with ‘Yogi Bhogi Natanam’ and won the applause of the audience.
As part of short duration concerts, Lalitha, Divya, Trisha and Mahidhara Seetharama Sarma rendered a number each of Annamacharya to the merriment of the music lovers. On the occasion, retired IPS officer Krishna Rao and veena vidwan D Srinivas released a CD ‘Neevu Kaligina Chalu’ tuned by Sattiraju Venumadhav. Musician Voruganti Anandamohan (Sangeetha Skherasagara) felicitated music critic and poet Dr Tadepalli Patanjali with the title ‘Annamayya Pada Sevaka’.
