Congratulating Manjula Gururaj on giving such a fine platform for the cultural activities noted director TS Nagabharana hoped that she makes money by conducting programs. For all of us in Bengaluru it was Ravindra Kalakshetra the main hub for cultural activities. In the south of Bengaluru there are many small and medium auditoriums to boast. In the part only there was dearth as Chowdaiah Memorial Hall was untouchable. The existence of this kind of auditorium should become a brand. I have been in this media with Manjula Gururaj from the beginning. She has contributed a lot. Leaving something for the future of society is impeccable.
