The concert was preceded by a talk on AIDS awareness by experts from the PGI, in keeping with the theme of the festival `Know AIDS for No AIDS'.

The concert was attended by a gathering comprising largely of students. Jaipuri doled out ghazals one after the other which were well received by some. He, however, failed to make a strong impact even though he attempted to imitate popular ghazal singers like Ghulam Ali. UT Deputy Commissioner R. K. Rao was the chief guest at the function.
