A pot-pourri of tamil-related Web pages

Page-2 : South Indian Music (Carnatic) and Dance (Bharathanatyam)

The tamil web sites collection has become fairly extensive (>1000), necessitating its presentation in groups over several pages. Various topics under which the tamil websites are grouped are listed on the left bar. You can click on individual topics to go directly to the collections of pointers of web sites in that particular area.

I do make an effort to check the validity of web-pointers listed here periodically. Unfortunately most of the websites have a tendency to move around. If you do find some of the pointers no-longer or sites moved to a new place, please send me a note by email.

Disclaimer: The following collection of tamil websites is presented as a public service.
I am in NO WAY CONNECTED OR RESPONSIBLE for the contents of these web sites!!!
