Whether it's the heartfelt rendition of a popular song by visually impaired Balasubramanium or the graceful expression of a prayer song through dance by the speech and hearing impaired duo Suma and Sridevi, each performance leaves a lasting impression filled with emotions.
Every performance is equally commendable, earning the artists well-deserved praise and recognition. This platform serves as both a therapeutic outlet, allowing artists to express their emotions through song and dance, and a means of livelihood, fostering dignity and respect.
