If you learn well here and excel, you’ll be in the spotlight – Jacqueline Fernandes while inaugurating Sur Sobhann
Mangaluru: Mandd Sobhann mentors the Talents and provides a Platform. The training I got here has made a great contribution to the name and fame I have achieved. We should constantly learn and use every opportunity. If you learn well here and excel, you’ll be in the spotlight. When you learn Classical Music, and get opportunities to sing for CDs, Films, and Stage Performances, you’ll realize the value of Sur Sobhann. These were the words of Soad-4 winner (Rani Kogull), Jacqueline Fernandes, during the inauguration of the Children’s Vocal Training Program – Sur Sobhann, at Kalaangann on 18 August 2024.
