Time for awards. And there were many. The decor on stage was eye-catching at Bharat Kalachar. Dr. Y G Parthasarathy (seen on extreme right) brought out her best vintage saris and decorated the flanks with them. The season is also the time when artistes as well as rasikas are seen with their best saris. Very evident at the traditional inauguration as dancer Malavika Sarukkai light the lamp with other dignitaries around.
