I was in Mumbai for a shoot made for Pogo channel as i am informed that i am in the race for this year's POGO Amazing Kids Award. This is one of the exercises towards this award and it was indeed a great trip for me as i went on Jetairways both ways with my father and enjoued the entire trip.
We went on the 13th Oct afternoon and stayed in a hotel named Hotel Columbus. On reaching Mumbai and being met by the driver, we went to the hotel and then on to the area near Ville Parle. I enjoyed the Pani Poori and Bhel along with a good ice cream and a lemon slush. That evening we had dinner at the hotel. In the mean time Adhishree aunty and Pradip Thakker uncle were ther in the room to brief us about the next days's schedule.
We left hotel around 1130 before which i had breakfast at Hotel Rama Krishnan where i had superb iddly sambar. The shoot went on for about 2 hours and after having lunch entertained the people there by playing my keyboard. Himanshu uncle who was the chief photgrapher was very impresinve and was very friendly too. The entire crew was helpful and courteous and not to miss out on Ganesh uncle who was our car Pilot for teh day. He was with us to the beach and i enjoyed seeing another beach of India other than our Marina. We reached airport, which is huge, and took flt and reached home around 1130. Thaks to Jairam uncle who was waiting at Cheenai airport to receive us and took us in his auto.
Met Mohamed Akrit Khan, a 13 year old child from Jaisalmeer who is also in this race. He was accompanied by his father Sri Khete Khan who was amazing with his karla katai i.e. 4 pieces of wood with which he was playing percusion. He palyed for my music and it was a real good time with me, matching his speed and gave a treat of good music to all the ones present. atleast that is what they said on this presentation. Sri Khete Khan is a profeesional artist playing alongside great musicians like Sri Zakir Khan and alsom y guru Sri Mandolin Shrinivas.
Looking forward to another trip and be with this POGO team at the earliest.
