- A fantastic rendition of a rare krithi in Reethigowla Ragam. Thought I will share this. (I do not own rights to this video.)
Vocal: TM Krishna
Violin: TKV Ramanujacharyalu
Mridangam: Vellore Ramabhadran
Krithi: Badalika Dheera (Composed by St. Thyagaraja)
Raga: Reethi Gowla
Tala: Aadi
Lyrics (Malayalam):
പല്ലവി:
ബടലിക ധീര പൗംവ്വാലിഞ്ചവേ.
അനുപല്ലവി:
സടലനി ദുരിതമുനുതെഗാഗോസി,
സാർവ്വഭൌമ സാകേതരാമാ.
ചരണം:
പങ്കജാസനുനി പരിതാപമുകനി പങ്കജാപ്തകുല പതിവൈവെലസി
പങ്കജാക്ഷിതോ വരമുനകേഗി ജിങ്കനു ഭജിഞ്ചി
മങ്കരാവണുനി മദമുലനചിനി നിശ്ശങ്കുടകു വിഭീഷണുനികി ബങ്കാരു
ലങ്കനോസകി സുരുല ബ്രോചിന നിഷ്കളങ്ക ത്യാഗരാജുനി ഹൃദയമുനാ (ബടലിക ധീര...)
Lyrics:
Pallavi:
Badalika dheera pamvvalincave
Anupallavi
Sadalani duritamunu tegaagosi
Saarvvabhouma saaketaraama
Charanam:
Pankajaasanuni parithaapamu kani pankajaapthakula pathivaivelasi
Pankajaakshitho vanamuna kegi jinkanu bhajinchi
Manka raavanuni madamulanachini nishankudagu vibheeshanuniki bangaaru
Lanka nosagi surula brochina nishkalanka! thyaagaraajuni hridayamunaa (badalika dheera...)
T M Krishna is present day top most singer of Carnatic music. Reetugoula is superb. None can match his caliber .God bless him.
No doubt he is one of the few renown orthodox carnatic Musician who upholds the true spirit of classical Carnatic music. Nevertheless one cannot forget the invaluable contribution of great legends like Madurai Mani Iyer. GNB, of course needless to mention M.D.RAMANATHAN for their contribution to Carnatic music espto rare Ragam like Reethigowla. ❤

1. tmk is the opposite of orthodox
2. gnb, mmi,mdr are not present.
3. reethigowla is not a rare raga
I don't understand why people are more interested in musician's mannerisms than his music.why can't they appreciate his devotion to music?

When everything is easy,,mannerism will come automatically
Dear Mr. Raghu Vishnubhotla,
Mr. T. M. Krishna sang it correctly. It is Badalika + Teera (a sandhi) = Badalkadeera. This is perfectly acceptable. Our Telugu people in fact sing those krithis poorly. I very sincerely 'salute" those non-Telugu speaking people singing them beautifully and we MUST appreciate.
Can Telugu people sing a single Tamil or Kannada or Malayalam or Sanskrit song with such clarity? Many popular artists failed miserably. I salute all those others singing those songs with so much involvement and bringing out the bhavam. Mesmerizing TMK. Honestly.
True. It's easy for Telugu singers to sing Sanskrit and Telugu but not as easy to sing in Tamizh or Malayalam. But Tamilians can sing Telugu with ease.
The purpose of correcting the diction is only to enhance the quality of the song for the Tamizh singers (so meaning doesn't change), hence some Telugu listeners point out some obvious corrections. But in this case, Badalikadeera is not incorrect. :) BMK garu is a great example for near perfect diction.
#Sarasvati Namostute
Raga Roopam The other primary reason for us to point out any diction and obvious lyrical mistakes is, so that, the next generation of singers do not make the same mistake that somebody of the stature of T. M. Krishna makes, just in case. He did no mistake here. However, any correction that we make in other instances is not intended to hurt them.
The stars and the gurus are carrying the tradition from one generation to another. They are great ambassadors of the art. There are so many students and artists looking up to them and following these stars and gurus directly or indirectly. So, if a star makes a mistake, their followers would argue that a star sang like so and hence I am singing the same. That is not a good attitude to take. The guideline for the next generation of artists is to sing it correctly rather than make the same mistake that somebody else makes. That is the only reason for pointing out and correcting and it is requested that either the artists or the gurus should not take it personally.
Our great master M D Ramanathan Sir was an exception. He took lots of efforts to learn the major south Indian languages (Malayalam of course was his mother tongue). The great master had taken utmost care while splitting the words in the lyrics (sahitya) to bring out the meaning correctly, which was not appreciated enough at that time. He has written and composed almost 300 kritis in different languages - Sanskrit, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada and Telugu. Strangely, the lyrics were scripted by him in the respective language. But, it is quite unfortunate and a shame to the Music community that the great master did not receive befitting recognition while he made his kutcheris live.
No day passes for me without having listened to this sweet rendition!
+1
This is such a good performance! I for one, actually really enjoy his expressions and gestures coz it really helps to immerse in the total experience. Plus his gestures point to what he's singing too, not in all its entirety as people might except, but just subtly pointing a way. It's really fascinating. I myself have such mannerisms when I sing, it's a normal thing to happen when the artist gets immersed in the music. It even happens to me at home, when I'm practicing, even there's nobody else to see my expressions. It's not a "showing off" or anything, it's what it is - an "expression" of their immersion.
Just like guitarists, when they play lead guitar solos, make certain expressions on their faces that people call "guitar faces" for fun.
Or for example, have you seen the great Vikku Vinayakaram playing ghatam, he has his own unique expressions and mannerisms (like the head tilt and hand raise at the end of a tihai of a piece) and all.
Every artist has some level of that.
Unadulterated stuff! Tradition soaked in all aspects. Longing to see this TMK now.
On the contraire his devotion towards his music I feel has become 100 folds more. He was excellent here and continues to be excellent even now. Nice to see him reflect on his music and go beyond the boundaries of music. Why should there be any limitation in imagination or concept when our carnatic music is not limited? Perhaps as an audience it might be good to understand his point of view in more recent times? Personally I don't feel his music is adulterated or traditionally less in recent times either.
Mesmerised by the lyrics , the bhakti, the bhava and the beautiful Reetigowlai raaga
I would have tried over 30 to 40 times to approach somewhere near singing this rather difficult kriti in Subaswaras . One of my favourites along with another equally mesmerising and beautiful kriti of Satguru "Nannu Vidaci " in Reetigowlai
The best reethigowla rendition till date. Been listening to this masterpiece since 7 years and it didn’t age at all.
vellore ramabhadran all time great.
TMK - The Carnatic Rockstar ! He Is The Real Krishna 💕... 🙏🙏🙏🙏💞💞💜💞💖💕💖💕💕💜💓💗💕💗💕💖💖💕❤❤💓💕💛💖💕💖💕💛💚💕💟💞👏No Word Can Describe this rendition ! What an Alāpana ! পুরো চুমু performance.
How soothing this Violin by this great man. Excellent rendition sir
Reeti gowla is a tough raga Oho What a Superb rendition only T M KRISHNA can sing like this
T M krishna is very cute.
What a soulful rendition! Raga rasaanubhava!
The beautiful violin accompaniment is most definitely TKV sir.
Yeah!!
TM Krishna at his height of classicism. I used to listen his kutcheries live those days. One kutcheri is enough to keep you going for another 6 months, such was the richness and content.Unfortunately a good artist lost his focus and i miss that TMK now a days. It may be due to vast improvement in his aesthetic level and my inability to follow it.
Love TMK...and also salute your last comment! takes humility to say that!
man he looks soo cute
Reethigowlai is one of the wonderful ragas. Emotionality and the depth of this raga was beautifully developed and rendered with this rare Thyagaraja's composition
"badalika theera" by Shri T. M Krishna. Thanks for posting and sharing this piece of TMK
Stunning piece .. mridangam stokes are out of this world .. so well balanced ... gels so well the krithi
The first phrase of this composition is just so distinctive ❤️ Sa Ni Pa Ni Sa Maaaa .. aha so beautiful and contemplative! Meditate on the suggestion inherent in this phrase!
The voice is so fine like gold/and divine and wonderful i pray lord venkateswara to give him more zest/zeel.god bless him ..shankavaram sundarraj iyengar
My sincere pranams to TMK for rendering Reethi Gowlai in such a high caliber.You are one of the Greatest. When I saw you for the first time in Chicago Tyagaraja Utsavam, long time ago, I saw your high quality expressions in singing. Keep it up,SIR !!
Nice
I love tm Krishna voice
Beautiful music from beautiful people, I will visit India, it's on my list!
great rendition, great performance. i like your movements.it actualy reveals how you are involved in that composition..an artist without performance is like sound from a statue..
Excellent rendition of Reethigowla. Reethigowla although looks to be simple, yet completely complex and complicated. For, if it slips it will land into Anandabhairavi. I am only reminded of the song "janani Ninnu Vina" sung by the the great legend late M.D Ramanathan Sir sung between 1970s and 1980s. GOOD depth width and take off of Reethigowla by T.M.KRISHNA. Great effort. Hats of to him.🙏
Rithigowla is the most intelligently knit raga.
I completely agree with Murali Mohan garu. Badalika-theera or Badalikadeera are perfectly acceptable. Non telugu singers may not be perfect but the raga bhava is of outmost importance (listen to the 22 min segment). We dont see many telugu singers singing tamil kritis do we? Many composers (including tamil vidwans) have composed in telugu. Telugu is the jeevaadhaaramu for carnatic music. I think I am not wrong to say that people keeping the traditions alive are the " endaro mahanubhavulu" (telugu or not). I bow humbly at their feet.
No words to explain...Addictive raga and Amazing singing and all..
Perrrrfect reethi goula. Excellent 🙏
Reethigowla,what a beautiful raga and that too sung by great TM Krishna ji.
He is simply genius.
Ever rendered reethigowla..
Great TM Krishna sir
Woowwwww!!! I enjoyed like anything when I.heard this full video! What a wow!!! Omg! A superb reetigowla! ......!!!! Its mesmerizing.....!!!!!
Such a great singer . Hope he returns back to Carnatic music.
Has he left?
Neelotpala Nayike -a Dikshithar kirtana rendered by MBK available on CZcams is a wonderful rendition. Very standard and enjoyable. Lot of energy. Being only audio there are no unnecessary hand movements.
Benchmark rithigowla is by the great MDR...Janani ninuvina...Nothing can beat that
I agree to that. There is no substitute to his voice, rendition, and bhakti!!! His renditions are monumental pieces. No match to those👌👌👌🙏🙏🙏😀😀😀. However, TMK's is also superb.🙏😀😀
Excellent. What to say?? My spirit, soul filled with the golden voice.
very good singer
Still the best reethigowla ever!!!!
Sweet Mridangam
Sabhash. Wonderful feel of reeti gowla
Excellent rendition. Soothing and relaxing music.
A Ragan has its own limited circle to go.If anybody gone out of that circle we will say thre Raga changed.It is very difficult to elabrate that Rage with in the circle.So one can sing little tine to elabrate that Raga.But an artist who is reserching through his perfomance can sing as much as time he need with out repetation in plan.
That is happening here by TMK
Pure Magic !!
Long live Krishna ! Ayushman bhava !சேரிடம் அறிந்து சேர்;சேராத இடத்தில் சேர வேண்டாம்
amazinggg!!!
I agree with Krishna Narayanan n pradeep Chandra. one must discourage such people who comment derogatorily on celebrated artistes like tmk.
Wonderful, beautiful!
This was the time when he sported a naamam. Now he is a secular musician.
Also has a mustache now.
thank you for posting this ,the krithi being one of the best of Saint Thyagarajas krithis in raagam reeti gowlai.
amazing man love uuuuuuuu
Great TMK
Nice raga aalapanam
Beautiful rendering...!!!
VGR Swamy means soukhyam and perfect nadham
Thanks for posting this brilliant rendition. Had the fortune of listening to him sing the same at Krishna Gana Sabha last December. Enticing and gripping rendition indeed!
have heard others as well, but this one just absolutely captivates me.
🙏🏽Pure bliss. ❤
ಅದ್ಭುತ ಅದ್ಭುತ ಹಃ ಹಃ
Awesome
Thanks
I agree with Sharada, the rendition, of Raga Reetigowla, (Bhavam), lyrics, and some credit to the composer , are essential, but the major chunk of credit should go to whoever is singing, and to hell with his mannerisms, head movements, and such. Just appreciate his performance, that is all. But then , this is an open forum, so, I suppose,, anyone is entitled to his opinions.
Rest on your downy bed and be free of fatigue,
erasing my inexhaustible sings, root and branch. Having exerted yourself so much, Lord, you need rest.
Relenting at the pitiable plight of Brahma, you incarnated in the solar race, all the way down from your celestial abode.
You had to trek enormous distances in the frightful jungles with Sita. There you shot down a Rakshasa who had assumed the form of a golden deer with the evil intention of separating you from Sita.
Krishna Da!!
ಒಂದು ದಿನದಲ್ಲಿ ಎರಡರಿಂದ ಮೂರು ಬಾರಿಯಾದರು ಕೇಳೆ ಕೇಳುತ್ತೆನೆ ಅಂಥ ಚೆಂದದ ಹಾಡುಗಾರ tm k
BRILLIANT.. this!
Wow ಕೇಳಿದಷ್ಟು ಕೇಳಬೇಕು ಎಂದು ಮನಸ್ಸು ಹವಣಿಸುತ್ತದೆ,ಎಂಥಾ ಅದ್ಭುತ ಹಾಡುಗಾರ.
Brilliant. Ella pughalum erai vanukae
excellent rendering......
Benchmark for Reethigowla is the one and only MDR.
TMK is second in my book. Bliss.
enthralling
very good programme
Mesmerising
Super
Wonderful
supar saar
Fall from grace for TMK has been steepest and deepest in entire carnatic world - past and present...now he is nothing but disgrace .
Carnatic Sangeetham is just not music.... people who call one of our deepest cultural values as just music don't understand the basics ...the greatest example of our culture not just being music is right on the stage... Ramabadran... 🙏🙏..please listen to what he had said... Jambhavans like Ramabadran are very rarely born even once in a century.. 🙏...and there is a REASON for this which is where the secret of our rich culture lies.
🙏
just superb!!
Great :)
awesome rendering
Very good singer. Better to listen with eyes closed if we don't like the struggled expressions
TMK and TKV _/\_
Absolute isd
excellent
Sir mujhe bhi online sikha dijiye please mujhe koi guru nahi mil Raha hai
I wouldn't call this 'fantastic'. It's not bad, but if this impresses you you're easily impressed.
Listen to GNB's rendition of this very krithi. It should be quite easy to find on the internet.
good
Why can't the mridangam player restrict his hands from playing/checking the instrument, while other co-artists are playing alapanai? It almost seems like either he is bored of the alapanai, or he is gesturing TMK/TKV to end the alapanai ASAP. It is a bit annoying!!
My view is that he is not checking...He was in tune with ni..sa... or pa...which ever note is played at that time. In fact adds beauty..... to say that everyone is combined in shruthi.... Mridangam was in fact well played and particularly in lower notes...which is the beauty of Reethigowla...
namam????????? before he became secular?
Before he turned commie
He had sung incorrect lyrics in many places
prajesh bhai. the song befor reethigowla is kamboji varnam.. do u hav it.i had it bt unfortunately missed it.pls..
@Shreyas Kuchibhotla that I said I lost that dvd
This recording must have been from two decades ago
No that's impossible he's only 38 today. He looks at least 30+ here.
Does anyone know how old he is in the video?
Brilliant; violinst is SD Sridhar and not TVKM ...
The violinist in this video is indeed Sri.T.K.V.Ramanujacharlu.
are you sure it is aadi taala?????

IT IS ' BADALIKA DEERA..' AND NOT 'DHEERA'
TM Krishna recently said that there is no difference between "Siva" and a "Skyscraper" in an interview. And that bhakthi tradition has no place in carnatic music. And that words are irrelevant. This hypocrite will gladly sing "Sangeetha gnyaanamu bhakthi vina" and say bhakthi is irrelevant; will happily sing "Nidhi chaala sukhama" while negotiating royalties and what not. A bogus scam artist.
I don't think he should be classified as hypocrite. As an artist who pursues Music in its art form, he said what he has in his mind. He minces no words. He believes so and hence says so. That he perceives music in its art form only and not along with Bhakti content is acceptable for his age though it is a pity. I would rather sympathize than condemn. The Bhakti or the Atma realization comes with age. That is why elders say Deergha Ayushmaanbhava. He is not like any Baba saying philosophical words and doing wrong karma. I recently read an article where a young lady who learnt Music said she quit it because the Indian Music is so integrated with Hindu religion and the Gods. That is an young artists' perspective.
Sri Murali Mohan. You are correct. I stand corrected. I do not think there is any space for name calling, which I did. I think your comment is just about appropriate. I think his comments are sad, and somewhat contradictory, but I need not have stooped so low.
Sincere thanks for the guidance!
Enriching Exchanges I highly appreciate the way you corrected yourself. I must praise you from roof tops. It is very difficult to correct yourself and say so. Ego and other human factors play a role.
I am hoping that Mr. T. M. Krishna too corrects his stance one day. I am looking forward to that day.
Wow that is one heck of a reply!!! just gave you a low down for the initial one and then read this!!...hats off for the humble revert. And so well put! Bravo EE!
it is badalika theera. not dheera.
Such a big curse to our Carnatic music. This singer is a shame to our Canatic music and should be banned by all Carnatic music event organisers
