Challenges in Koramangala

The face of Koramangala shows itself after dusk. A time when the billboards come alive, the signboards of stores, restaurants and malls scream and when the pathways are packed with young people.

This is probably the most cosmopolitan of Bangalore, since the people who work in the IT sector hail from all parts of the country and most are young.

Classical music has a small band of followers here. So Dinakar Rao, the secretary of the Sri Rama Seva Mandali here says he and his team has to be satisfied with a small audience for the music festivals.

Partnering Indian Heritage Centre which has two small halls on its premises, the mandali sets up the Sri Rama shrine in one, has the music concerts there and the dances, only on the final evening are held in a  slightly bigger hall.
