Answers to Photo Quiz 3

Yes, the scholar-musician featured in last week's quiz is indeed Sangita Kalanidhi Dr. S. Ramanathan, photographed without his trademark beard!

The changed appearance seems to have foxed a lot of people... We had answers ranging from P. Sambamurthy to V. V. Srivatsa & S. R. Janakiraman and even DKJ! However, three respondents got it right: Chandramouli, New Jersey (in his second attempt!), Ramakrishnan (Chennai) and M. Raghavender. Congratulations!

Answers to Photo Quiz 2

They are the SOOLAMANGALAM SISTERS (Jayalakshmi & Rajalakshmi)

We had a flood of responses to this quiz and several respondents got it right. Among the wrong guesses, many thought the duo was Brinda-Mukta or Radha-Jayalakshmi. Thanks for participating, folks! Look out for our next quiz which will be put up soon.
