Excerpts follow
You've been a voice trainer for quite a number of years and have helped generations of singers find a voice. Yes, I've been on Vijay TV for about more than a decade. I've also worked in the North, for Indian Idol and Sony etc. but I'm familiar largely with the Tamil population because I've been very closely associated with Vijay TV Super Singer for more than 10 years.

My voice recovered and I've recovered hundreds and hundreds of voices over the last 30 years.
