YESUDAS CELEBRATED 73RD BIRTHDAY
Singer K.J. Yesudas celebrated his 73rd
birthday on Thursday by offering prayers at Kollur Sri Mookambika Temple in
Karnataka. Mr. Yesudas with wife Prabha and singer son Vijay Yesudas reached
the temple late on Wednesday and gave special offerings to the deity.A concert
led by popular musician Kanhangad Ramachadran was held near the Saraswati
Mandapam on Thursday morning. Mr. Yesudas rendered a few devotional songs on
the occasion.It has been his custom for over a decade now to celebrate the
birthday at the temple. Anticipating his visit, hundreds of his fans and music
lovers had reached the temple.
Seeing a large number of parents waiting
impatiently to get their children initiated into the world of letters by him,
the veteran singer urged them to get the services of the priests for such
ceremonies as they are regarded as the mediators between the worshipped and the
worshipper.Later, Mr. Yesudas with family and close associates had the birthday
feast at the residence of temple priest K.N. Govinda Adiga and left the temple
town in the afternoon.
