Hi All, I was part of the show yesterday which is of electrifying mind boggling concert. This is the day that I was waiting for the last 13 years. I just do not wanted to miss inspite of heavy down pour. I throughly enjoyed the proffesional touch by all the artist. Even though the ARR said the show is not with preparation. It was just magic created by ARR and Group. I can not miss the next concert of him where ever it is. Please let me if anyone has any clue about it.
I can not not express my feeling through words. I wish him all the best of the world.
