    Thank you Daijiworld for the article. In Spandana's small attempt to promote music and budding musicians you have been very helpful to Spandana Muscat for all these years.

    Yeh Shaam Mastani is Spandana's 5th event. Earlier we presented "Sangeeta Lahari" in 2011 with Raveendra Prabhu and Anitha D'Souza duo team, "Yaado Ki Baarat" in 2012 with Tagore Das, Naveen Koppa and Sangeeta Balachandra, In 2013 we organized "Raag Anuraag" and in 2015 we unfurled "Shaam E Sargam" with Naveen Koppa and Prarthana Choudhury team.

    All these events could be possible with the blessings and support of all our well wishers and respected sponsors. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.
