K. Balachander's contribution to Tamil cinema and theatre hailed
A collection:DVDs of serials made by director K. Balachander being launched in Chennai on Friday.
Chennai: It was an event to trace the five-decade-old journey of director K. Balachander, who turned 80 on Friday. The film fraternity hailed his contribution to Tamil cinema and theatre and his penchant for perfection.
Actor Sivakumar extolled the director's eye for detail. He recalled the instance when he had to grapple with high tides when he sat on the rocks at the Visakhapatnam beach during the shoot for ‘Sindhu Bhairavi.' “Nothing would deter KB [Balachander] from extracting the best out of the actors. He would ask us to get ready for a retake even if he finds a slightest slip in our performance.”

Dr. S.A.K. Durga’s Sareera Sadhana, a DVD that presents a model workshop on voice training for Carnatic music was released this past Friday, at the Raga Sudha Hall, Mylapore. In her speech on the role of Sadhana, Dr. Durga emphasised the importance of voice training for musicians. “Voice training has become imperative in the current scenario where time is a key factor -- it helps voice flexibility and ensures both sruti and swara suddham,” she asserted.
