A suggestion

In Dulcet Duet (MetroPlus, February 2) eulogies have been showered on Shubha Mudgal and Jeyashree by Deepa Ganesh. In the two-hour concert, there was Carnatic music only during the first and the second items. The raga mala that was rendered subsequen tly was in Hindustani style from both the singers. My suggestion to the duo would be to explore a ragamala like “Bhavayami Raghuramam” in the Carnatic style with a corresponding one in Hindustani Classical style.

Age matters

The article Seniors Vs Juniors (MetroPlus, January 24), the generation gap is explored. I think this has always been an issue. In the present scenario we have to remember Gen y is used to be told everything, like the clothes to wear to school, time t able for the day, exam schedule and so on. In fact they are used to writing so many exams and getting the results, feedback, evaluation and so on. Hence when they start working they are at a loss to manage and plan their work for lack of feedback.

Probably the probation period should prepare them not only for their work but also other soft skills. Eventually the onus lies on the elders to help youngsters for a smooth transition into the adult world from that of students.

Misleading

The article Remedies to Reduce (MetroPlus January 22) did not meet the usual standards of articles that features in this supplement. Mentioning the Atkin’s Diet immediately after mentioning quacks was misleading.
