Parents
sure
do
play
a
huge
role
in
our
lives,
don't
they?
While
they
ensure
that
every
occasion
is
special
for
us,
children
seldom
get
a
chance
to
do
so
very
often.
None
the
less,
they
also
make
constant
efforts
to
celebrate
with
them
and
so,
actress
Swara
Bhasker
decided
to
surprise
her
parents
on
their
35th
wedding
anniversary
along
with
her
sister-in-law
and
close
friends.
While
it
was
a
small
gathering,
it
turned
out
to
be
quite
the
gala
time
with
good
food,
music,
and
loved
ones.
The
actress
had
a
private
musical
night
keeping
in
mind
the
pandemic
and
the
restrictions
for
the
Bhasker
family.
It
was
a
one
of
its
kind
musical
night,
and
she
invited
renowned
Carnatic
vocalist
Sudha
Raghuraman,
who
performed
for
the
gathering.
Talking
about
inviting
the
renowned
vocalist,
Swara
quipped,
''My
father
is
from
Andhra
Pradesh
and
Carnatic
vocal
is
his
favourite
genre
of
music.
Incidentally,
she
had
also
performed
at
my
Arangetram,
and
hence,
it
was
all
the
more
special
for
all
of
us.
It
wasn't
a
very
elaborate
celebration;
however,
everything
was
well
thought
of
and
everyone
had
a
good
time.
My
parents
were
extremely
happy
and
enjoyed
themselves
throughout,
and
in
the
end,
that
is
all
that
counts.''
The
celebrations
included
a
small
gathering
of
family
and
friends
along
with
a
small
musical
concert
with
a
proper
baithak
like
seating
arrangement,
a
three-tier
wedding
cake
accompanied
by
a
Keralite
spread
for
dinner.
Her
parents
were
not
aware
of
any
of
this
and
they
had
a
complete
blast
on
the
day.
Among
other
things,
she
also
decorated
the
house
with
photos
of
her
parents'
journey
right
from
their
up
until
the
present
day.
