Today's appreciation:
I am not sure if you have heard
that someone is a volunteer in many forums for more than 4 decades. He
can be seen when there is Seer's Darshan. You can see him when there is
an Annadhanam. You can see him in all music concerts. Musicians render a
great service by offering their excellent music - which is a treat to
ears, soul and the mind, for some it is a medicine, for some it is their
life. You may see organizers, compere, sabha secretaries, audio people,
assistants during a music concert in temples or sabhas. But I have
personally been seeing 'Dhaadi Shekar' - some call him 'Ice cream
Shekar'. He must be 65 now. He is personally known to many musicians.
Ok. What does he do? He would just do anything for the musician. Offer
water, soda, milk, sometimes use handfans, pick up luggages for them,
and for some musicians like M.Chandrasekaran uncle - who cannot see -
would be guided to the stage or vehicle by this gentleman. He is doing
all these on a self-less basis and on a voluntary basis. He also
supplies food to very old people who have no one to help as a carrier by
bicycle for a very nominal carrying fee - from the place where it is
cooked. He can be seen with a big smile any time. He is lean. Also very
clean. You may recall him when you see his photo below. You may even
check about him with a top musician about him. In fact he has been
serving right from Madurai Mani Iyer to the latest Abhishek or Janani
etc. It is very rare to see such people in this digital era. To wish him or to contact him : Mobile - 09840888808.Friday, June 6, 2014
