The Badrinath area is referred to as Badari or Badarikaashram (बदरिकाश्रम) in Hindu scriptures. It is a place sacred to Vishnu, particularly in Vishnu's dual form of Nara-Narayana. Thus, in the Mahabharata, Krishna, addressing Arjuna, says, "Thou wast Nara in a former body, and, with Narayana for thy companion, didst perform dreadful austerity at Badari for many myriads of years. One legend has it that when the goddess Ganga was requested to descend to earth to help suffering humanity on the request of suryavansh king bhagiratha, the earth was unable to withstand the force of her descent. Therefore, the mighty Ganga (Ganges) was split into two holy channels, with Alaknanda one of them.

This seems to be the authentic version... Some established singers have sung this as if they are to catch a train..Dikshitar created these kritis like mantras... Not to be raced through but to feel each word....
I feel anyone who has listened well to Semmangudi-ayya's renditions, would find it hard to listen to the likes of Sanjay or TMK. Shastriya Carnatic singing is not just all about technical prowess and his renditions never got corrupted with time, they only got better, as they should rightfully be.
ONLY Semmangudi can sing this krithi, compared to all the rest. They should respect him by not singing. Thyagaraja respected syama sastry but not touching Anandabhairavi ragam in his 24000 krithis. That is bhaktha bhavam and true respect. The present crop of musicians will remember this. Namaskarams to carnatic musicians.
Beautiful

Semmangudi is an Immortal music genius. I heard him from age 12 to today@age 65.
Please keep his songs on-line.
Thanks for sharing the lyrics.

For your info, saint tyagaraja did compose a krithi in anandabhairavi.
Same way, Mr SSI should have respected by not singing Thyagarajas compositions like he was about to catch a train.
