Please accept my heartiest congratulations to Saptak for completing 24 glorious years. Abbaji, We and his family have been connected with Saptak from its inception. As a teaching institute, Saptak's contribution to the world of music has been significant. The Saptak festivals over the years have been organised with a lot of finesse and dedication. It is very nice to see young artistes getting a platform to perform for these festivals. The senior artists performing for these festivals becomes a source of inspiration for these young and upcoming musicians. My heartiest compliments and best wishes to Saptak members for the success of its 'Silver Jubilee' year celebrations.
