Hi! All, Kanagaraj, a 70+ year old harmonium maker, says:
"Being a close friend of music director Sekar, I made a baby box for his son, A.R. Rahman. I have made professional boxes for Rahman as well, and to date, he uses the ones crafted by me."

Even at this ripe age, he ekes out a living by repairing harmoniums of any make." Regards Kamal Aakarsh Vishnubhotla. http://kamal-aakarsh.blogspot.com
