History

R. R. Sabha (Rasika Ranjani Sabha) was founded in 1929 by A.K.Ramachandra Iyer, owner of then Midland theatre, M. Logoantha Mudaliar and K. Natesa Iyer. Initially programmes took place in Vanniar School, Nadu street, and later in National Girls high School (no Lady Siva swami Iyer Girls, School), on Sundareswarar Koil Street, Mylapore. In 1930, the Sabha bought seven grounds of land, on the same street, from Kovur Sundareswarar temple. The hall where programmes were held subsequently was named Sundareswarar Hall. Read more
