Other accompanists are not named. DKJ evidently takes part in this recital as a support vocalist, sometimes singing entire phrases. There is also a moorsing player clearly audible at times.

If the notes to the recording are to be believed, this is the first concert in which Palghat Mani Iyer accompanied DKP, a landmark event for female vocalists in general.
