Singer Ruhan Mahendra Kapoor took centrestage alongside
Raaman Khuranaa, President – Global Punjabi Association, Annu Kapoor, Johnny
Lever, Vijayta Pandit, Amrit Mann, Dilraj Kaur and a host of other celebrities
at The Global Punjabi Association’s celebration of the spirit of Independence
in loving memory of the musical genius Padmashree Mahendra Kapoor ji. The day
also marked the fourth anniversary of the Global Punjabi Association and the
second year of the Padmashree Mahendra Kapoor Awards hosted by the same
association.
Says Ruhan Kapoor, “It is the 69th Independence of India
celebrations in dad’s memory. And it will be a momentous occasion. I will miss
dad and we have done thousands of shows together. I miss him every time I perform
alone but he is with me through his immortal songs.” Ruhan will perform songs
like Hai Preet Yahan Kei Reet Sada, Tum Agar Saath Dene Ka Vaada Karo, Neele
Gagan Ke Tale, Lakhon Hai Dilwale, Mere Desh Ki Dharti, Mahendra Kapoor’s
Punjabi song medley, and duets like Tere Sang Pyaar Nahi Todna among others.
Says Raaman Khuranaa, “While there is no dearth of great
causes for an organization like this, it is also true that occasionally one
needs to celebrate, dance and laugh for the many blessings that Waheguru Ji
gives. This is a dual celebration as we are giving away Mahendra Kapoor Awards
to many deserving Indians.”
The Global Punjabi Association has been doing a great
service in bringing the people of Punjabi origin together to do good work. The
association has, at its core, a dream and vision of social and cultural uplift,
uniting and harnessing the dynamic energies of their members to the service of
the aged, the sick and the downtrodden. This association is a non-political and
non-Government organization. In a short while, it has already taken up a host
of cultural programmes as well as programmes for disabled children, fitting of
prosthetics for old and impoverished persons with medical issues.
