'Daiji Anniversary,' a high-profile and professionally managed entertainment program, is considered one of the prestigious Konkani events, patronized by a large audience every year.

Sanjay Rodrigues, known as Sanju Baba, is the mastermind behind many successful musical shows in Mangaluru and beyond, and will bring his magic on the keyboard, flying in from Mangaluru specifically for this show.

Daiji Dubai will also organize a mega program in Mangaluru to mark its 25th Anniversary memorably. In this event, the prestigious ‘Daiji Puroskar’ will be awarded to a Konkani literary personality, which will be announced in the coming days. The date of this mega event will be declared shortly.

Dayan D'Souza Mukamar, convener of Daiji Dubai, has earnestly requested the support of the Konkani community in Dubai through their presence and participation. Besides its cultural identity, 'Daiji Dubai' is also associated with many worthy social causes, motivating people and organizations worldwide.
