Bengaluru, 29 Jun 2016: The Bangalore Konkani Catholic Sangh® (BKCS), Koramangala, here celebrated their 20th anniversary at Good Shepherd parish auditorium on Sunday June 26.

 

BKCS president William Pinto welcomed the guests, artistes and jam packed audience. Ronald Pinto, managing director of Hyssna International LLC, Dubai was the chief guest, FKCA chairman Arun Fernandes was the guest of honor and Austin Roche, CMD of, Charishma Hotels and RBD Shelters LLP presided the function.

 

Speaking on the occasion, Ronald Pinto appreciated the good work done by the BKCS members. He called upon the members to give something back to our society, reach poor people of interior villages or adopt a village and do something substantial and said, ‘I am with you.’

 

Austin Roche lauded the BKCS members for their charity work in education, medical specially assistance to Thalassemia children. BKCS conducted Melvyn Peris Nite during 2011, in aid of Thalassemia project of St John’s Hospital, Bengaluru and donated Rs 6 lac to this noble cause.

 

Lorna and Claud enthralled full capacity audience atn Good Shepherd auditorium here. Lorna Cordeiro popularly known as Nightingale of Goa performed first time ever in Bangaluru. Lorna was one of the dominant Goan singers, she regards Chris Perry as her Guru and credits him for bringing to light her singing talent and making her a popular singer. She sang famous songs like Bebdo, Pisso, Tuzo Mog, Calangute etc.

 

 

Konkan Kalashree Claude D’Souza who is an acclaimed singer, composer and actor along with his group Jyotsna, Ashwin and Denora added the Mangalorean spice with famous numbers like Wilma Maria, Oh Beauty, Konkan Taram and so on.

 

It was a superb performance touching a chord in every Mangalorean and Goan heart in Bangaluru. In fact this was the first ever performance by Goan and Manglorean artistes performing together on a stage.

 

Making people laugh is an art, which very few people have been able to master.  In the Konkani cultural scene Dolla, comedy king is the one who stands out as a comedian. He along with show compere Leslie Rego delivered rib-tickling jokes with punch lines.

 

Lorna, Claud and Dolla were felicitated during vote of thanks. To conclude the event, baila was played by Claud and his group and Lorna was seen dancing to the tune of baila.
