    Really appreciate and thank Mr. Francis and family for supporting such a musical event which showcased the local talent which is on par with that in Bollywood. Poonam looks evergreen.

    Sorry to miss this show but I attended a similar one by the same artistes 'Sargam' some time back at the same venue which was mind blowing. Apart from music there was superb 'shayari' from the compere whose photo appears on the top of this report. He was excellent then. Unfortunately his name is not mentioned anywhere in the report.

    Looking forward to such shows in Dubai too.

    Yes these are certainly reminders of Ashok Charan Nites.
