Dear Friends,
The Bansuri programme on 15th July 2023 has brought back the glory of R R Sabha after Covid. First time after Covid we have to face unprecedented crowd and the organisers of the programme has made a magical, mystical evening of full nostalgic songs of 60s,70s, and 80s. All the performers played their part gracefully and elegantly. Prof.Mani has excelled with his quiz programme and witty anecdotes and thus captured a special place in every listeners' heart.
