It’s the time of the year when country’s highest civilian awards are announced and we have started getting the names. The awards are announced every year and handed over to the individuals who excel in the field of art, medicine, literature and education, trade and industry, sports, public affairs, civil service, journalism, science and engineering and social work.

According to the latest reports, legendary Tamil film music director Ilayaraja who has been enriching our lives with his music will be awarded Padma Vibhushan, the second highest civilian award. It must be noted that Ilayaraja got Padma Bhushan in the year 2010.

Congratulations to the Maestro!
