This time (in contrast to yesterday), they intelligently put boys on Portico and inside Bhajan hall + ladies' side of Bhajan hall. CCTVs. Sai Kulwant + Poornachandra fully occupied by Kalasam couples + roads! 50,000 + 10,000 devotees! 7 to 9 am Pooja, before which we (KBR and co) did pooja to our amplifiers by putting flowers, kumkum, turmeric, bhasmam (since it was Ayudha Pooja day). After program, waited (false alarm) for KVR to come to Lab for pooja, then 10:30 washing clothes etc. Hostel. Finally rain stopped, this morning.

Evening, after Discourse, Kuchipudi Bhaama kalaapam by professionals. Rain started again after that. Because of a short, Mr. Kumar and Mr. Ramalingam had to cut the live secondary cable going to Poornachandra before Discourse.
