Endowed with strong and pliant voices that uniquely complement each other, the sisters have a striking style of their own, which has won the hearts of the traditionalist and the lay rasika at once. Recently they were rated as one of the top popular Carnatic vocalists by the leading classical music magazine "Sruti."
