Bharat Ratna MS Subbulakshmi____ My BLOG content for your reference______Bharata Ratna MS Subbulakshmi:MS Subbulakshmi popularly known as M.S. M means Madurai the place she was bornS means Shanmukhavadivu her mothers nameShe proudly says without her mother's encouragement she would not have become a singer and says she was her first guru.Now read on MS ( September 16 , 1916 - December 11 , 2004 ) was a renowned Carnatic vocalist . She was the first musician ever to be awarded the Bharat Ratna , India's highest civilian honor.An Excerpt from her speech, Just you can imagine what a simple person she is: Our home was very small -- two rooms, a kitchen and a courtyard. A staircase went up to the terrace on top. Our house was always packed with elderly aunts and uncles who were often sick. We had to be quieter then. Our life was simple and frugal. We had coriander coffee in the morning .We had rice and buttermilk at night. I was very fond of jasmines. But we couldn't afford to buy flowers everyday. Do you know what is her Lollypop?? And candy? Vadiva and I would pound tamarind, chillies and salt together, roll it into little balls and put a stick through each one. There was our lollipop! I never felt we lacked things. Learning music was fun because we three children learnt and practised together. I would sing, Vadiva would play the veena and brother Saktivel would make the room echo with his mridangam. His drumming was so good that I actually learnt to play the mridangam from him. We would laugh and talk as we practised. But mother's footsteps were enough to make us fall silent.What her father used to say?"As a child, I had a pet name. Everyone called me Kunjamma, which meant little girl. But my father had another special name for me. It was always "Rajaathi, my little princess!" He was very proud of my singing. He would say that he would get me married only to someone who would cherish my music. Then he would laugh and tease, "So how about a nice boy who plays the tambura? Do you fancy such a husband?"I like her personality so much:Friends I am not writing much about her, there is heaps of information on this great personality in the web, please read about her. I got highest regard to MS as she was so simple, she can live like queen but she donated all her wealth for needy and when she passed away she was very simple person. She can have children but she didn't as she looked after her husbands first wife children as her children. We rarely come across people like MS. I always feel bad as I thought of going and seeing this great personality in 2004 when I lived for 2 months in Madras, but I postponed. So it is always best to do things immediately when you decide to do or else we cant do some things in our life time._________________________ __BalajiPS: There could be some mistakes in my pronunciation and sentence construction , in my voice in the Vblog, please note the same and I will be more than happy to rectify such mistakes in my next blog.
