Hi, It depends on how far u want to go. Carnatic music is an ocean by itself. if u want to start with the basics and learn a few kirtis composed by famous saints then it will take about 3 yrs. Regards Poornima

Hi Guruprasad:

There is no age bar at all to learn any art. In music, it all depends on how sound is your basic sruthi gnanam. Just take up a simple soft film song sung by your favorite singer and try to sing it with correct sruthi and taalam. If there is a lapse in sruthi and taalam, your musical ear will automatically say that you have gone wrong somewhere. This will clearly indicate if you are truly interested in music. All the best!

Thanx and bye
