Ravindra Bharati is all set to reopen on February 7, 10 months after its closure. The auditorium of Ravindra Bharati was closed to the public due to the Covid pandemic.

In addition to the programmes, offline performances will also be continued after the auditorium is opened. Harikrishna said that they were initially hesitant to conduct online classes and shows, however, the classes had a massive response from the audience.
