The concert brings renowned artists from various regions of India on a common platform. In its true form, Santvani is a lyrical ode to the Sant Parampara or saint tradition of India. A humble attempt to enlighten the music lovers with the devotional works of Indian saints and mystics that have spanned generations and times.
