Children shine at humour meet

The monthly meeting of the Besant Nagar Humour Club, conducted on November 20 in association with the Residents' Welfare Association of the RBI Staff Quarters, Besant Nagar, was extra special as it was devoted exclusively for children to commemorate Children's Day. Club chairman A. Kumar, while welcoming the large gathering, said the club always strove to bring out the hidden talents in children by providing them a platform at every meet. He appreciated the wholesome support given by the members and office-bearers of the RBI Staff Quarters Residents' Welfare Association for the successful running of the club for the last 10 years. G. Swminathan, the club's general secretary, conducted the open joke session for children, in which a large number of school children participated and cracked joke with spontaneity. Several other children performed on stage. The audience encouraged them with thunderous applause. Hakshitha played some popular numbers on the keyboard. Amirtha, rendered a devotional song. Abilasha Veeraraghavan presented an impressive Bharatanatyam recital on Dasavatharam. Her gurus Shivakumar and his wife were honoured by the club for their outstanding contribution to Bharathanatyam. T. Tamilselvan, convener, cultural sub-committee, RBI Residents' Welfare Association, proposed the vote of thanks. The next meeting of the club is being held today (Sunday).
