San Jose, June 17, 2011.

Kerala Club California continues to receive accolades from members of the San Francisco Bay Area Malayalee community regarding the "Thaara Samanwayam" show with Suraj Venjaramood, Meera Jasmine, Bala, Vidhu Pratap, Deepthi Vidhu Pratap, Sreejith, Anand Narayan, Kalpana Suseelan and Latha Krishna. "The best show of the year!" , "Excellent organizing", "We wished the show went on for another hour", "You guys took care of everything, and thanks for a fine evening with the stars" are some of the comments we have received.

The local artists who had an amazing day dancing with the stars also commented on how well the show was organized, how well they were trained and how dedicated the Kerala Club team was to make sure they had an excellent time performing on stage with these highly talented stars from Malayalam cinema.

The senior members in the community also had commented that it gives them joy to witness the unity and dedication of young members staging such high quality show for the sake of the community.

The stars too had high praise for the members of Kerala Club Calfornia who spent a considerable amount of time preparing for this show.  As last year with Dileep's Show 2010, ours was the last stage of their one-month visit to the US. 

• Here is what Bala & Suraj had mentioned about their experience with Kerala Club
• Here is what Meera Jasmine had to say about Kerala Club.
• Here is some of the audience response after the show.

ദിലീപ്‌ ഷോ 2010 സിലിക്കണ്‍വാലിയില്‍ വന്‍വിജയം

സാന്‍ഹൊസെ: കേരള ക്ലബ്‌ കാലിഫോര്‍ണിയ സംഘടിപ്പിച്ച ദിലീപ്‌ഷോ 2010 വന്‍വിജയമായി. സിലിക്കണ്‍വാലിയില്‍ ഏറ്റവുംകൂടുതല്‍ മലയാളികള്‍ പങ്കെടുത്ത പരിപാടിയെന്ന്‌ വിശേഷിപ്പിക്കപ്പെട്ട പ്രോഗ്രാമില്‍ 1300-ലധികം പേര്‍ പങ്കെടുത്തു. ദിലീപ്‌ ഷോയുടെ അവസാനത്തെ പരിപാടിയായിരുന്നു സാന്‍ഹൊസെയിലെ ഏറ്റവും വലിയ തീയേറ്റര്‍ എന്ന്‌ വിശേഷിപ്പിക്കാവുന്ന, നഗരമധ്യത്തില്‍ സ്ഥിതിചെയ്യുന്ന സെന്റര്‍ ഫോര്‍ പെര്‍ഫോമിംഗ്‌ ആര്‍ട്‌സില്‍ നടന്നത്‌. മികച്ച പ്രകടനമായിരുന്നു എല്ലാ കലാകാരന്മാരുടേയും എന്നായിരുന്നു പൊതുവെയുള്ള അഭിപ്രായം.

കേരള ക്ലബ്‌ പരിപാടി ആസൂത്രണം ചെയ്‌തതിനെപ്പറ്റി ഷോയുടെ സംഘാടകര്‍ക്കും കലാകാരന്മാര്‍ക്കും പൊതുജനങ്ങള്‍ക്കും വളരെ മികച്ച അഭിപ്രായമായിരുന്നു. ക്ലബിന്റെ പ്രഥമ പരിപാടി ചെയ്യാന്‍ കഴിഞ്ഞതില്‍ ദിലീപ്‌ പ്രത്യേക സന്തോഷം രേഖപ്പെടുത്തി. കലാഭവന്‍ മണിയും, സലിംകുമാറും ക്ലബുമായി ഭാവിയില്‍ സഹകരിച്ച്‌ പ്രവര്‍ത്തിക്കാന്‍ ആഗ്രഹം പ്രകടിപ്പിച്ചു.

കേരള ക്ലബിന്റെ ഭാരവാഹികള്‍ ക്ലബിനെ സിലിക്കണ്‍വാലിയിലെ മലയാളികള്‍ക്ക്‌ ഔപചാരികമായി പരിചയപ്പെടുത്തി. താരങ്ങളുടേയും, താരാ ആര്‍ട്‌സിന്റെ വിജയന്‍ മേനോന്റേയും നന്ദി പ്രകടനത്തോടെ 3 മണിക്കൂറിലധികം നീണ്‌ട പരിപാടി സമാപിച്ചു.
