Over 1,600 religious heads, and personalities from the film industry, will attend Ashok Kheny 's bash today
Religious heads, film stars and politicians will participate in the 61th birthday celebrations of Ashok Kheny, Managing Director of Nandi Infrastructure Corridor Enterprise Ltd (NICE), at the High School grounds tomorrow in Davengere.
The maverick road builder is organising a 12-hour birthday celebration, and expects 5 lakh people across the state attending the function. "We are expecting 500 devotees of each pontiff to attend, and by this calculation there must be 8 lakh people in the audience. This is apart from our own people and the moderate estimation is 5 lakh at least," said Kheny.
The Akhila Karnataka Ashok Kheny Youth Movement is organising the function and Nagendra Prasad, president of the movement, said that the cultural programme by film stars would mark the event that would be preceded by an all-religion conclave to be graced by the pontiffs. He said 400 leading artistes, including singer Sonu Niigaam and music director Guru Kiran would perform, while stars from Kannada and Hindi film industry would also attend.
"People attending the function will remember it for a long time because of the cultural programme," said Prasad. He has invited main religious heads including Shivakumara Swami of Siddaganga Matt, Vishwesh Theertha Swami of Pejawar Math, Shri Shri Ravi Shankar, Baba Ramdev, and D Veerendra Heggade of Dharmasthala.
