After the low-profile launch and a small audience for the opening concert, a nadaswaram-tavil recital, the Seshadripuram college campus was a busy beehive on Sunday evening as rasikas doubled in for a concert by T. M. Krishna.
The artistes were late by some 25 minutes ( caught in the city's infamous traffic jam, said violinist H K Venkataram ) but the house of some 1000-plus people waited patiently as Krishna, as is his wont made sure the audio levels were right before launching off in his trademark style.
On Sunday, some city newspapers carried news on the unfortunate turn in Krishna's evening. Somebody had made off with the huge amount of cash that was paid to him as artistes' renumeration, at the venue even as he was chatting with well-wishers here.
The mandali here was in the news for a nasty note a thief had struck that Sunday night.
