TRIVIA:
Dr Venugopal was a great fan of Richard Clayderman. He introduced to me about him and sent several of his albums copied in DVD.
On one of his birthday I sent him a printed notes on Richard Clayderman, (collected from his official website)with his pictures and list of albums released, neatly spiral bound, as a gift to him. He was to visit Bellary, on way to Nemakal, and I sent it to Sridhar to present him. Venu was so happy to receive that.
