Her Lineage

Nithyasree's rapertoire is a unique gift by her illustrious Paternal grand-mother Gana Saraswathy Smt.D.K.Pattammal, the doyen of Carnatic Music and her maternal grand-father the mirudangam maestro one and the only Palghat Mani Iyer.

 I shall honestly say she is a worthy grand-daughter of these doyens or Pillars of carnatic music.She is also proud to have Sri.D.K.Jeyaraman as her Paternal uncle.Music lovers have a very strong hope that she will  continue to render their golden melodies in her chaste style for many decades to come.

Though hailing from a very powerful family of musicians,she is an artiste in her own right. Nithya takes pride in confessing that her grand-mother D.K.Pattammal is her role-model but she does want to be a carbon copy of her grandmother.Nithya definitely is a chip of the old block. She genuinely feels her sole important responsibility and duty to keep alive the great tradition set by her family.
