Namaskaram, In the first picture, the anukka thondar standing at extreme right is Brahmasri Vedapuri Mama (I believe). The Anukka thondar standing to the right hand side of Periyava (Aajanubaghu Sareeram) is Panampattu Kannan Mama. Anybody could share the names of the other Anukka Thondars? For example, the Anukka Thondar standing at 3rd position from the right is a familiar face. I’ve seen him in many photos.But I don’t know the name.
Jaya Jaya Sankara Hara Hara Sankara!!!
What a Bhagyam. Hara Hara Shankara. Jaya Jaya Shankara
