It is also not easy to organise such a programme and I know that there are many who have contributed to make it a success. I pray to the almighty for the success of this programme.”

Patla Satish Shetty thanked all the sponsors of the event and also handed a cheque of Rs 25000 towards medical expenses of Prakash, a fellow Yakshagana artiste from Bappanadu troupe who has been undergoing treatment at a hospital.
