The bombastic businessman the NICE Road ‘Rajakumara’ Ashok Kheni celebrated three days birthday on reaching the 60 years that was almost similar to ‘Aradhane’ what we see in social life for saints and pontiffs.

At Srirangpatna, Mandya and Mysore – that is where the NICE roads are richly becoming popular are the places where Ashok Kheni spent crores of rupees and made good announcement to prove that he is a part and parcel of this state.

At the mammoth 40000 attended celebration at Mandya Vishveswaraia Playground Sri Balagangadharanath Swamiji did the Ashirvachana. Kheni Maharaj had earlier announced construction of hotel for women in the leadership of Adhi Chunchanagiri Math investing Rs.22 crores. On knowing this Ambarish Anna of Mandya people made a humble request for Kheni to look at the Kalavidhara Sangha that is coming up in Bangalore. Obviously Ambarish meant for some building fund to the building.

On this stage Rs.30 lakh flood relief was announced. Sri Balagangadharanath Swamiji, Ashok Kheney Rs.10 lakh each and Rs.5 lakh each was announced by Ambarish and Ashok Kheni Fans Association.

The firework on the air was a treat to watch. Ashok Kheni mother Smt.Malathi Kheni had come for this mammoth celebration and stayed for sometime on stage at the cake cutting time. Sri Balagangadharanath Swamiji appreciated the caliber and generosity of Ashok Kheney.

Kheny in his speech pointing to his son said he came straight from USA to this function instead of going on tour to Agra and others places. That is because he would get the affection of lakhs of people over here. Next time he would bring his brother Sachin to this place said Kheney.

Ambarish in his speech said he has no ‘Swartha’ in conducting this function. A number of artists could not make it today because of the tension fear. I pray for all of you to keep quiet and enjoy the further function – Ambarish was tired of making arrangements go smooth.

Sumalatha Ambarish, Real star Upendra, Rockline Venkatesh, Vijay Raghavendra, Chiranjeevi Sarja, Aindrita Ray, Ramakrishna, Ravi Chetan and others took part in the gala function.

On Monday evening at Mysore Maharaja College grounds nearly 30000 people thronged the event also because superstar Rajanikanth confirmed his attendance to honor Ashok Kheney. Rajanikanth wondered with the flow of admiration for Ashok Kheney because he is not that popular in the public field. Pejawar Math Swamiji Vishveshwara Teertha graced the birthday event of Ashok Kheney.

At this third day the concluding day of Kheney birthday he announced 1000 cows for 1000 widows to become self reliant.
