The young Telugu music band, ‘Capricio’ in their ‘Premam’ styled attire belted out amazing Telugu melodies, and kept the guests swaying in delight. In short, it was a celebration of being a Telugu.
Sampath Srinivas Thummala shared, “We have been serving Telugu cuisine since years and we have huge respect for our traditions and culture. An event of this kind was a long standing vision and we are happy that it finally happened.
This is a basic attempt to bring some festivities alive. We hope our customers enjoy our offering and we look forward to making it bigger and better the next year.” Photos: Ravi Giragani
