The Akkarai Sisters are amongst the most celebrated names in Carnatic music. Their music have taken them to every corner of India and every part of the world. They have released numerous albums, debuting with Subhalakshmi’s unprecedented ‘Abhishta Varada’, featuring her vocals recorded over with her own violin accompaniment at age 15.
