The Secretary of the Sabha, who was sitting next to her mother arranged for a live demonstration of the child’s talents, soon after the main item of the concert. At the Concert of Mandolin U.Srinivas at the Mylapore Fine Arts, on December 25, Mahathi, sitting on her mother’s lap kept identifying the Ragas played by the musicians on stage. When she was 3 years old she came to Chennai with her mother for the December Music season (1988).
Just to test her talents, her father mixed up Carnatic Swaras but Mahathi did not fail to identify the exact Swaras of the Ragas. When she was 2 ½ years old she was able to identify about 75 Carnatic Ragas. This talent was identified by her parents during her father’s concert at a temple in Palakkad. Mahathi started identifying Carnatic Ragas at the age of 1 ½ years.
