Bhavani and Dr. Jayasree Venugopal, accompanied by Y.V.S. Prakasha Rao and Vijith Venugopalan.

The highlight of the evening will be the presentation of the “Grand Records – Symbol of Excellence” awards, honouring individuals whose contributions transcend borders and disciplines across fields such as education, healthcare, cultural preservation, science, entrepreneurship, and the arts.
