First of all we would like to take this opportunity to express our immense gratitude and thank Guruji Kala Ramnath for accepting our daughter Nandini as her disciple. Nandini is truly blessed to have her guidance not only for violin but invaluable life lessons as well.

We would also like to thank the Rithwik foundation for providing such an amazing platform for Nandini to showcase her talent. This is her first performance at such level and we are very excited to be a part of it.

She is 8 years old and getting such fortuity from her Guru Vidushi Kala Ramnath Ji. It will encourage her immensely to work harder.

During this difficult pandemic time, this performance will always be very special for Sanjhbati, as she is very excited to present her music in front of people across the globe.

We are very thankful to Rithwik Foundation for giving this unique opportunity to Shubhanan to showcase his music. His first performance with Rithwik begins a unique chapter in his musical journey.

Shubhanan is blessed to be a disciple of Vidushi Kala Ramnath who has not only been a guru, but also an inspirational force to him.

The platform created by Rithwik and Kalashree Foundation is providing opportunities to young artists like Shubhanan who are residing outside India and seriously pursuing Indian classical music. It is a proud moment for us and we are very excited for him to be represented by RFPA.
