A capacity audience sat through the eighty minute session, completely absorbed in the beauty of the classic classical offering. Post the programme, the artist and the accompanist were felicitated by senior Ashram officials. The session continued with Bhajans and concluded with Mangala Arathi offering shortly after 1830 hrs.
