Here’ some interesting news for music connoisseurs. Ability of Disability- A Night of Melody will showcase performances by disabled artistes as well as various singers including Abhijeet Sawant.

The musical event, organised by Her Highness Sheikha Arwa Al Qassimi, will donate the proceeds to Sightsavers, which aims to eradicate avoidable blindness and provide equal opportunities for persons with visual impairments. In India since 1966, Sightsavers partners with over 100 organisations in 17 states to work towards eye healthcare, educational support and rehabilitation of people with visual impairment. In 2012, they reached out to over 1.5 million people with potential eye problems and supported over 77,000 eye operations.

The event aims to be a musical extravaganza, which will demonstrate that those who are disabled are no less than the abled. To see six completely visually impaired boys and girls perform and dance with candles in their hands on the stage will be an enlightening experience for the audience. Donor passes for the program are also available at the venue.
