P.S.- ABRACADABRA’ owes it’s success to a lot of people, some of whom worked relentlessly behind the scenes.
The Chief Judge DTM Geetha , whose guidance and judgement gave a new sheen to the contest.
Contest Chair TM Anu , whose dedication and beautiful smile made the contest even more charming.
TM Jane , who worked non stop behind the scenes to make others relax and enjoy.
The different role players , who did an excellent job.
The huge number of participants who came to take part in the magic.
The best part was the easy camaraderie between the members which made the whole event seem like a magic fest with each weaving their own spell
We sorely missed Neelesh , Harry , Shruti and other magicians of Talkmagic.
