- Teaching was one of his unfinished businesses - although he
taught many disciples, he had wanted to "spend more time doing more justice to it" as he had put it.
- Nevertheless, many of his disciples are busy performing artistes today in their
own right, and many more are active teachers and enthusiastic amateurs as well
- Quite a few people even claim to be his "Ekalavya Shishyas" - as the character in the Indian
Epic "MahaBharata" - Ekalavya - meaning, even if some people had not met him directly, and learnt from him
formally, they took Dr. Chitti Babu, and his style to be their prime motivation and inspiration and profess to have learnt
Veena from just listening to him thru his concerts and CDs, and from practising his style.
