“K S Chithra Live in KL Up Close and Personal” is being held in a smaller, cozier venue to “enhance the experiences of show goers”, according to Ratna Nadarajan of organiser Mojo Projects.

“We believe smaller and more intimate shows provide a level of connection with the performers that bigger concerts do not,” he said at a press conference yesterday.

Popularly known as the “chinna kuyil” or “little nightingale” of South India, Chithra has been performing for over 40 years, constantly dominating the charts ewith a staggering 25,000 songs to her credit.

She has won six national awards and 35 state awards to date.

According to Ratna, Chithra’s concert will be the first of a five-concert series organised by Mojo this year.

“The second concert will be Retro Rahman 3.0, which will see performances by Srinivas, Haricharan, Sharanya Srinivas, Rashita Suresh and the Groove Culture Band; while the third is Mojo Live jam, featuring bands Masala Coffee and Staccato,” he said.

The fourth, he added, will be a tribute to the legendary Indian playback singer S P Balasubramaniam featuring his son; while the fifth will be the Malaysian Independent Live Fusion Festival. More details will be released in due course.
