Ranjani and Gayatri, the supremely gifted Carnatic vocalist duo gave their first performance on Bangladeshi soil on the fourth night of the Bengal Classical Music Fest, and became instant sweethearts of the Dhaka audience with their melodious performance. Carnatic vocalist-duo Ranjani and Gayatri rendered six recitals including nattai-saraswati, raga pantuvarali, raga mukhari, raga khamaj and "Vithoba chala mandirat" in raga maru bihag. Ranjani and Gayatri said something very meaningful, “When you have wealth, you have many friends, when there is no money, friends leave you”. Ghatam was a simple earthen pot, but the way it was played was simply mind blowing.

Ranjani and Gayatri are one of the rare few who have achieved enduring success in both violin and vocal music. After more than a decade as successful violinists of high calibre, the sisters' foray into vocal music has brought them instant recognition and wide acclaim.
Ranjani and Gayatri began their music career as violin duet artistes even before they reached their teens. Through their intense training, command over the violin and fine artistry, they quickly established themselves as top-class violinists of international repute. The sisters started giving vocal concerts since 1997, and within barely three years, have won high praise from discerning critics and music lovers all over the globe. Their music, imbued with a deep and abiding classicism, has been described as an exhilarating blend of vitality, melody and emotion. Endowed with strong and pliant voices, the sisters have a striking style of their own, which has won the hearts of the traditionalist and the lay rasika at once.
Ranjani and Gayatri owe their rich musical heritage to the focussed and high-level training received from their gurus - Sangita Bhooshanam TS Krishnaswami for violin and Sangeeta Kala Acharya Sri PS Narayanaswamy for vocal. They had their initial vocal training from their mother Smt. Meenakshi Balasubramaniam, from whom they still continue to learn.
Recent awards include the Kalki Krishnamurthy Memorial Award awarded by the Kalki Trust and the prestigious National Eminence Award given by the Shanmukhananda Sabha, Mumbai in the year 2004.
