ON THE WAY |
Besides,
the following few impressions of great personalities
speak for themselves on the distinction
and the achievement of Kalai Kaviri:
“Kalai Kaviri is
not an institution. It is a temple of Arts
and Culture. A blend of Culture and Technology!”.

Dr. A. Gnanam, Vice-Chancellor, Bharathidasan
University (14.06.1985) |
|
|
“Bharathidasan
University is indeed fortunate in having
this cultural institution affiliated to
it. It goes without saying that Kalai Kaviri
has been doing a remarkably good job in
popularizing Tamil culture far and wide.
Cultural institutions like Kalai Kaviri
act as custodians of the culture of a people”.

- Dr.S.Muthukkumaran, Vice- Chancellor,
Bharathidasan University (02.09.1992) |

“The
feel of the most deprived, which have so
far been denied the opportunity to perform
the sacred art pf Bharathidasan on this
traditional soil, are now given the glory
of performing it, thanks to the efforts
of Kalai Kaviri. The traditional classical
art form is brought to the common man. This
is a Silent Revolution – a Constructive
Revolution.” |
-
Mr.K.Veeramani,General Secretary, Dravidar
Kazhagam. (01.08.1993) |

“Kalai
Kaviri is an institution of unique facilities
with all the three basic requirements of
Higher Education, i.e., teaching, research
and extension activities in Arts and Culture
of Tamil Nadu. It is a gem in the crown
of Bharathidasan University. I wish Kalai
Kaviri gets the opportunity to become a
‘Research Centre’ in fine Arts”. |
-
Dr.R.Muthukkaruppan, Vice-Chancellor, Bharathidasan
University (03.07.1994) |

Kaviri is much more than an institution
for imparting training in Fine Arts. It
is based on an integrated and holistic approach
in terms of the concepts, principles. Values,
communication, talent promotion, group interaction,
harmony etc. it is a mission.” |

“Promoting
these cultural arts, unstained by the barriers
of religion, acste, social or economic status,
I am sure, is the secret of your success.
Even in this initial stage, you have succeeded
in extending your service to the rest of
the regions in the country…you have
rightly taken up the opportunity to shoulder
such a big responsibility of reviving and
promoting these arts…
“Certainly Kalai
Kaviri is a gift of the lord to the people
of Tamil Nadu and of India. As the Chairman
of the CBCI Commission for Social Communications,
I want to thank you for this great service”.

“Kalai
Kaviri has achieved a truly remarkable status
because of the way Indian culture and traditions
are ingrained into the students and special
care is taken for students from the deprived
category. It is the duty of our Universities,
the Government of the State and the centre
to ensure that proper support of higher
education as offered at Kalai Kaviri is
maintained to enable the strengthening of
this aspect of human life.” |

This
is a reader’s letter published in
the June 1998 issue of the magazine ‘Sangeetha
Sarigamapadani’. “This college
renders ‘art for people’s sake’
which is a more realistic ethic”.
“In India, there
are several famous and prestigious dance
troups as well as dance training centers.
Yet, I am attracted towards the programmes
and services of Kalai Kaviri because they
render service to the backward and the marginalized
groups. Though they belong to a minority
group, they do cater to the backward of
the majority – the most backward”…..

am privileged to foster this institution
