    Congratulations,KJ. you have come a long way. i recall our college days in Mumbai during mid 80's. Kannada students studying in various colleges in and around Mumbai, formed their own Kannada Sangha and we used to gather and hold Kannada cultural & social activities by conducting inter collegiate competition in one act plays, debates, songs, mono acting and fancy dress etc. Once out from college life, some of us formed a Kannada social welfare group called Kannada Kala Bharati and staged many Kannada dramas and other social activities. Sadly, busy Mumbai life made us to separate from each other but memories of those days last a life time.
