Mysore/Mysuru: In a noble gesture, Mysuru-born singer Vijay Prakash of Jai Ho-fame enthralled the paediatric cancer patients on  Jan.1 at a programme held at the auditorium of  Shri  Shankara  Cancer  Hospital,  Basavanagudi, Bengaluru. 

Starting with  Mahaganapathim Manasa Smarami, continuing with Bombe  Helutaite…  (from the movie Raajakumara), Vijay  Prakash  enthralled the kid-patients for more than an hour, making them dance also for a while to his tunes. 

Ending his special show with  Jai Ho…, Vijay Prakash said if God willing he would like to sing in the same auditorium on every New Year Day  to  lift the spirit of paediatric cancer patients. 

On the occasion, the noted singer was felicitated by Shankara Hospital Chairman and               renowned Onco Surgeon Dr. B.S. Srinath. 

Dr. Veena Bharathi, an alumnus of Mysore Medical College, was present on the occasion.
