Devotees of the Ayyappa Kshetram in Johannesburg were treated to a special performance on the evening of 15th March 2010. As part of their divine offering to Swami Ayyappa, Sri VP Dhananjayan and Srimathi Verushka Pather choreographed special items to show their devotion and love. This was hosted by the family of the Shree Ayyappa Kshetram, headed by the most divine soul amongst us, Dr.Raj Kolapen.

The first two recitals were staged was at the prestigious Durban venue - Izulu Theatre, Sibiya. Audiences were treated to spectacular performances from the artists. The Master of Ceremony, Mr Kiru Naidoo a political analyst, took the audience through a once in a lifetime opportunity to see the great legends, the Dhananjayans, perform. Sri VP Dhananjayan introduced each item before it was performed, so that the audience may have some understanding of what they will experience. We had a full house on both the nights but we all will agree that the audience of Saturday night were outstanding. They really gave Dhananjayan Master the response he greatly enjoys. A fantastic, stimulating audience.
