J. Jayalalithaa, several times Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, gave one of her earliest dance performances at Vani Mahal, under the banner of “Oriental Dances”.
Yesudas was strongly backed by Vani Mahal during his preliminary years of performance. As a mark of gratitude, his guru, Chembai Vaidyanatha Bhagavathar requested Yesudas to perform regularly at Vani Mahal. Even now, Yesudas continues to perform every year at Vani Mahal during the December season.
Veteran comedian Nagesh made his debut in Vani Mahal only in the play “Vakil”.
