Talks by writer-historian V. Sriram are sure to have a packed hall.
TAG Centre on TTK Road, Alwarpet was packed to the door and on the dais well before the Sunday talk on 'Alathur Brothers' began at 10.30 a.m.
R. T. Chari of TAG who plays host ( he also serves a good south Indian breakfast at the venue for all guests) said his staff counted 340 plus people in the hall.
What Chari does not enjoy doing is letting everybody know about the talks - he prefers only people on his regular 'talks' guest list to get preference though his team does not shoo away first-timers if they come in early.
The joke is that a section of the guests attend to enjoy the breakfast and filter coffee and look forward to some great humor at the talks.
Sriram's talk was packed with info. A recording will be available at TAG.
The Dec.27 talk is on M S Subbulakshmi.
TAG hosts a talk every month on subjects related to music/dance, culture, heritage.
