Aruna Sairam started her classical training under her mother Rajalakshmi Sethuraman. She went on to become a disciple of the legendary vocalist Sangita Kalanidhi T Vrinda, thus continuing an illustrious line of female singers in the Tanjore tradition for more than eight generations. Later, she was mentored by several other maestros of our country.
