On the occasion, Anuradha said,“The film on Bal Gandharva definitely had the nation sit up and notice his achievements.
But, I have always wanted to have something permanent, which will throughout the year showcase his saris, shela and belongings. This will keep him alive among us forever. Also, a musical festival on the lines of Sawai Gandharva will do justice to his work.”
