A tabla workshop was conducted by Muthu Kumar and his wife Priya Kalyanpur. It was an interactive and entertaining session. They spoke about the need to respect our own individuality and respect our personality. They urged the youngsters to never doubt oneself since it leads to one’s own destruction. They also said that the happiness found in dedicating oneself to achieve one’s real goal of life is much greater than the happiness that we receive by following the shortcuts to our goal.

Was taught to yearn for efficiency in the life and never let down our own self. Belief in our own self is the most important aspect of our life. Belief and dedication for the goals are inevitable.

Apart from entertainment, I learned to break the boundaries (he ran from home and came to Mumbai for the sake of his goal). I also learned to have the courage and be ready for the amount of dedication needed to achieve your goal.

Muthu sir, You showed us the power of music. Music is also my passion. I dropped music somewhere over the years and you inspired me to take back the divine art form to which I was fortunate to be born with. You showed us the necessity of practice, and thank you so much for helping us out with the album.
