Subbarathnam, the renowned violinist, initiated them into music. They have been trained in Carnatic Classical vocal and violin for over 20 years under the tutelage of their father. The sisters specialise in the rendition of the “Avadhana Pallavi”, which they learnt from their maternal uncle R.S. Nandakumar.

Being LLB degree holders, both the sisters hold a ‘Vidwath’ degree in Carnatic Classical Vocal and Violin, conducted by the Government of Karnataka and are “B High” graded artistes in AIR.  Their maternal grandfather is Mahamahopadhyaya Ra.  Satyanarayana.
