Padma Seshadri Bala Bhavan (PSBB) Group of Schools celebrated its 69th anniversary, Abinaya 2026, with the theme ‘Kaatrin Mozhi’ in the city on Friday. Students from all branches of the school presented a series of cultural performances including choir renditions, musical theatre, Bharatanatyam, instrumental and vocal music with wind becoming as both the metaphor and the unifying element throughout the programme.
The chief guests, Carnatic vocalists Ranjani and Gayatri, said that as students perform, they were also witnessing courage and emotion. “It takes courage to walk onto the stage. Music has taught us many things, but above all, the brutal truth that there are no shortcuts to music. Music is not luck but labour,” the duo said. “Whoever you admire on stage or in any field is not just magical. They simply refused to stop practising,” they added.
