Arts training programme for Dalit students launched in Mysuru under SCSP and TSP scheme

For the first time, a six-month long training programme in classical music, light music, and folk music for Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes was launched under the SCSP and TSP scheme in Mysuru. Minister for Social Welfare H.C. Mahadevappa, who is also the Minister in charge of Mysuru district, inaugurated the arts training programme for hostel students in Mysuru at a function organised by the Department of Kannada and Culture at at Kiru Rangamandira on Kalamandira premises in Mysuru on Saturday. Classes will be held three days a week, with each session spread over two hours. Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Mahadevappa said that dance, art, literature, and music are among the most powerful mediums, capable of having a profound impact on society. 'These arts have naturally belonged to the oppressed communities, and our government is working to encourage and provide platforms for them,' he said. The initiative not only supports students in gaining proficiency across various fields, but also aims to culturally empower them and nurture cultural leadership that can influence society. 'Therefore, all students should make the most of this opportunity,' he said. He also appreciated the Department of Kannada and Culture for taking up the task of translating B.R. Ambedkar's book 'The Buddha and His Dhamma' into Kannada under the SCSP and TSP scheme. Director of the Department of Kannada and Culture K.M. Gayathri, who also spoke on the occasion, explained the concept of the arts training programme, and thanked the Minister for immediately approving the proposal and its funding. The programme was also initiated to keep hostel students away from mobile addiction and encourage their innate talents, she said. Joint Director of Kannada and Culture Department V.N. Mallikarjuna Swamy, Assistant Director M.D. Sudarshan, Project Coordination Officer of the Department for Welfare of Scheduled Communities K.M. Mallesh, and hostel wardens Varaprasad and Saraswathi were present.

Ahead of the release of Elumale, the makers released the first single, titled 'Yaavaga', and it's already striking a deep emotional chord with listeners. Soaked in longing and delicately crafted, this haunting melody captures the ache of long-distance love, brought alive by the soulful vocals of Sid Sriram and the evocative composition of D Imman. Known for their magical synergy, Sid and Imman once again deliver a track that lingers in the heart long after it ends. Sid's voice glides through every note with heartfelt intensity, while Imman's signature melodic layers elevate the song into timeless territory. Released in Kannada, Tamil, and Telugu, the song's multilingual appeal adds to its emotional universality.
