Sunaada Chaitanya Foundation organizes programs on music and literature to further the mission concieved by renowned gamaka exponent Sunanda Gururaj. This year, in 2024, the foundation organized a KAVYANJALI program to honor the sacrifices of braveheart Capt MV Pranjal - Shouryachakra, who was martyred defending the nation in 2023. Shatavadhani Dr.R. Ganesh’s scholarly and spell-binding vyakhyana of Abhimanyu’s valour along with sonorous vaachana by Smt.Samudyata was a wonderful tribute to Braveheart Capt.M.V. Pranjal - Shouryachakra. The moving words of dear Pranju’s parents Shri.Venkatesh and Smt.Anuradha Venkatesh was heart warming and inspiring.
The photo gallery made by Benne Sudhindra with pictures of Pranjal’s journey into the army added a new dimension to the event. A special feature was the display of Capt.Pranjal’s uniform and the poignant poems written by his mother Smt. Anuradha Venkatesh in her signature style which is simple yet profoundly beautiful. The poems which were between mother and son were shared publicly for the first time.
