🎶 🎵 A Night of Evergreen Melodies 8.8.2026, Beautiful Memories and 25 Years of ANUBANDH 🎶 🎵
Some evenings are more than just events. They become memories.. woven together with music, emotions, laughter and a sense of togetherness. ANUBANDH - A Home for the Aged, experienced one such beautiful evening as it stepped into the 25th year of its journey of service and care.
To mark this special milestone, ANUBANDH hosted a soulful musical evening, “Magic of Old Bollywood Songs,” at the FDDI Auditorium on Mandore Road, Jodhpur. The evening was a heartfelt celebration of music, nostalgia and, above all, the journey of service that ANUBANDH has undertaken over the years.
The highlight of the evening was Meenal Jain, the well-known Mumbai-based playback singer, whose melodious voice brought alive the magic of some of Hindi cinema’s most cherished songs. Her soulful renditions of songs including - Salona Sa Sajjan Hai, Baiyya Na Dharo Balma, Agar Mujhse Mohabbat Hai, and Zara Si Aahat Hoti, Dil Sochta Hai Kahin Yeh Woh Toh Nahin, transported the audience into an era of timeless melodies. The warmth of her singing, coupled with the audience’s enthusiastic applause, created an atmosphere that was both nostalgic and deeply joyful.
Adding further energy to the evening was 'Naad Rush Band', whose vibrant musical performance brought a different rhythm and youthful energy to the celebration. Together, the performances made the evening a wonderful coming together of melody, memories and music lovers.
The programme was graced by several distinguished guests and well-wishers, including former Mayor Kunti Devda Parihar, Dr. Nirmal Gehlot, Tarun Gehlot, Manish Mehta, Dr. Tarun Kant, Dr. D. Kumar, Anil Kumar, Dr. Sangeeta Singh, Dr. Om Lata Bhagat, Dr. Vishwanath Sharma, Dr. Aditi Taylor and several other eminent personalities. The evening was smoothly conducted by Rakesh Chauhan and Priyanka, whose engaging anchoring kept the audience connected throughout the programme.
🌸But beyond the music and celebration, the evening carried a deeper meaning.
🌸The 25th year of ANUBANDH is not simply a milestone in time; it is a milestone in service.
🌸For 24 years, ANUBANDH has remained committed to providing abandoned, destitute and needy senior citizens with something far more precious than just shelter - a home, nourishment, medical care, companionship, dignity and the reassurance that they are not alone. The journey has been about creating a space where ageing is met not with neglect, but with care, respect and belonging.
That is what made this musical evening especially meaningful. It was a celebration not only of old songs, but of old lives, cherished memories and the timeless human values that ANUBANDH stands for. As familiar melodies filled the auditorium, the evening seemed to bring generations together, reminding everyone that music has a beautiful way of making memories come alive and hearts feel connected.
The event was made possible with the valuable support of Rajan Audio-Visual, Naad Rush and FDDI Jodhpur, whose contribution helped make the evening a memorable one. The guests and audience also expressed their appreciation for ANUBANDH’s continued dedication and extended their warm wishes for its onward journey.
As ANUBANDH enters its 25th year, the celebration is ultimately a celebration of people - of those who have been cared for, those who have served, those who have supported, and everyone who has believed that every elderly person deserves a life of dignity, affection and belonging.
And perhaps that is the real magic behind ANUBANDH - turning years of service into a lifetime of memories, one life and one act of care at a time.
