Hit song 'Ramulo Ramula' singers Anurag Kulkarni and Mangli, Hemachandra and his brand new band, and other famous bands like Jammers, Madira and Chowraasta entertained the crowd with their top-notch performances.

The funds collected from this annual fund raiser will be utilised to improve the conditions of the downtrodden. Street Cause is registered under Telangana government and has been started to create a platform for youngsters who are intent on doing their bit towards betterment of society.

The NGO has also provided an opportunity for the winners of their previous fund raiser, Voice of Hyderabad- Season 3, to showcase their talent at this concert. The crowd was astonished to see kids perform well as they tapped their feet and sang along. Music was also accompanied by delicious food stalls, portrait drawing and body painting. All the arrangements from passes to stage and from food stalls to bouncers were a 60 days work and were handled by the team professionally.

The intention behind this concert is to raise enough revenue to adopt a village in Adilabad district.

Medical camp, and benches donation in primary school also played a key role in making the Impact week a huge success.
