ThillanaMalika 

The Thillana that was presented by Krithika Rajkumar had been specially written and composed for the occasion.  Krithika being the 50th graduating student of Nritya Sudha’s Hindu Temple Rhythms, this Thillana celebrates HTR’s memorable landmark and garlands the organization with a unique ThillanaMaalika set to Raga malika and Thala malika.  Each line of the thillana is set to a different Raagam and different Thalam.  Note the highlighted letters of the raagams for each of the lines below make up “KRiThiKa RaJKuMaR ARanKeTaM”.
