"padma Bhushan" Nookala Chinna Satyanarayana's "Ganda Penderam" felicitation by Mangalampalli

"padma Vibhushan" Mangalampalli Balamuralikrishna put on the ganda penderam (golden anklets) on "padma Bhushan" Nookala Chinna Satyanarayana's feet in appreciation of his services to Carnatic music for almost six decades. Nookala is a “walking encyclopaedia of Carnatic music”, a title that has been bestowed on him and which befits his stature.
