Here is a feedback from one of audience members:

At a time when everything is competing for your attention, a friend lured me into spending my Saturday afternoon,attending a Musical on AR Rahman. It was for a noble cause and I am a Rahman fan, so I obliged.

As I arrived at the gate, I was greeted by welcoming smiles from young Sewa Volunteers, who swiftly escorted me to the lunch area. Despite a huge crowd, the entire process was streamlined to allow for enough time and space to eat, mingle and socialize, well before the show started.

The show started right on time, preceded justly by Saraswati puja, Goddess who represents education, music and creativity. The spectacular production by Niche Entertainment captivated the audience with their outstanding conceptualization and performances. It succeeded in evoking nostalgic emotions from decades of growing up to the beats of Rahman music. The audience were on their feet singing and dancing to the beats of ‘Chaiya Chaiya’ and the likes. The entire auditorium reverberated with the chorus, ‘Jai Ho’.

Rightfully so, for as I learn more, I realize the same 2 words can be applied to applaud the ‘Sewa International Milwaukee mission’ and the work that they are doing.

The Sewa cause shined through in every aspect of the show, through Sewa’s mission of supporting childhood education, Community service and building leadership skills. The energy and dedication of the volunteers and their speeches forced you to introspect and left you wanting for more.

It is probably one of the best shows I have attended in recent years. It is clear what sets this show apart from the rest. This show was truly Dil se...
