Folks, Its was FANTABULOS...and Extraordinary concert by ARR. What a personality....!!! The 150 All Stars were simply at their best....highly energetic. I had a chance to talk to many of the perfoming artists....including our dearest.... he infact said...."ada paavi adhukulle yahoole padam potiteya"......(you sinner (on the lighter side) you've already uploaded the pictures from pre-concert). He is all smiles....we'll love him.
All our small efforts towards making this a successful was greatly appreciated by all of'em. Kudos for all fellow members who spread the word out there.
