A.R. Rahman inaugurated a children’s block at the Adyar Cancer Institute on April 14th, 2009. This block was built in memory of musician Mahesh, who had scored the music for the Kamal Haasan starrer Nammavar. The late musician, it may be recalled, succumbed to cancer. It was Mahesh’s vision and death wish that a Trust should be created to help the children suffering from cancer.
Ajith, Arvind Samy, Mani Rathnam among other participated in the event. Mahesh’s wife Chithra Mahesh, the head of the trust, spoke about the trust’s vision and disclosed that the hospital was built using funds collected from various shows and event. The building cost about 3.5 crores, she said. |
