We are grateful to
our volunteer, Preeti Rai for organising a unique
birthday party- the first after the sad demise of
Vishnuvardhan. Actress Bhavana spent a couple of hours
interacting with our children. She spoke to the children
about the challenges, the hard work, the grime behind
the glamour of the silver screen. |
"Who Am I? " - A
question all adolescents ask themselves... until the
forces of society push or pull them to accept the
mainstream definitions of normal.
ASTITVA (The
search for identity)

that honours the spirit of being oneself. Above all
