Talking about Lydian, Shankar Mahadevan said, “The real musical genius in our country currently is Lydian Nadaswaram. We have an International Piano Day in Mumbai and we have many celebrated names on that day who come and play piano. And Piano Day’s star attraction is our little Lydian! When he sits in front of his home ground, the Piano, he only creates magic. He transforms himself from Clark Kent to Superman.”
