Susheela felicitated
Melody Queen P. Susheela, who charmed the audiences with her melodies for over four decades, was felicitated in Hyderabad on Saturday by mayor Banda Karthika Reddy at a charity concert ‘Gaanakokila Sangeetha Sangamam’ organised to support orphaned children suffering from HIV/AIDS and persons with physical disability.
Referring to her as one of the best singers of Telugu origin, the mayor said: "We realise the magic of music when we listen to P. Susheela’s voice. Her voice is god-gifted and her songs touch our soul."
Post felicitation, Susheela regaled her audience with some of her super hits, ably assisted by her singer-family members V. Ramakrishna, V. Raghu and V. Nishitha. The charity concert was organised by Bethany Karunalaya, a home for the homeless and Sanghamitra, a not-for-profit society, at Satya Sai Nigamagamam in Srinagar Colony. About 40 underprivileged children also attended the show.
