Magical Evening with Muthukad
More than 100 people attended COMA’s Magical Evening with World Famous Magician from Kerala, Gopinath Muthukad. He entertained the crowd with his motivational speech and amazing magic tricks. It was even more special as he did not use the usual props for performing the magic!
Muthukad is also a social reformer who is working on the uplift of differently abled children via Acadamy of Magical Science that he founded. Please support his cause by contributing to his initiatives. Additional information here: Link

The Ruler of the Sea By Arya Janardhanan
She skips with glee, Her thick skin, Hard to beat, she’ll always win, She’s big in size, Almighty in disguise, As she roams along the sea.
Who knows where she’ll go, High or low, She’ll never stop, Always at the top, She splashes her tail along the way, Into the vast blue bay, As she roams along the sea. |
