Kumari Aishwarya should try to sing at a more comfortable sruti. A lower sruthi would have a better effect for her voice and allow better sruthi alignment, which was lacking quite a bit. AlApanais had a lot of repetitive phrases. svaram singing for the main kriti and the pallavi could have been better. A better concert plan would have also left a good impact.

Sri Srinivasa Rao and Sri Kumar were good.
