US Moinuddin, Firdose Fathima, Yasmeen and others in Magnifique Public School |
Bangalore:
It was a fantastic concert by a ten year old visually impaired child Firdose Fathima in the
Magnifique Public School campus. Firdose played
music on her Keyboard like a seasoned professional. . Listening to her play Celine Dion’s “My Heart
Will Go On,” Boney M’s “Rasputin” along with Hindi classics such as “Mera Juta
Hai Japani” and other hits was a treat to the audience. She also played nursery
rhymes to entertain the nursery kids of the school. Daughter of cricket player
Syed Rashid Hussein, Firdose has performed in front of the Indian and Pakistan
national cricket teams too. Author, Educationist and Environmentalist US
Moinuddin who was present during the performance said, “Firdose is a role model
to the thousands of people who either blame their destiny, ill-health or
circumstances for not doing things in life. If a person wants to follow their
passion or want to achieve incredible feats in life, they can do it
irrespective of the deterrents that crop up during the journey.”
Firdose’s mother Yasmeen has dedicated her life for her
daughter, encouraging her in every possible way. “Firdose is incredible in
grasping things, you teach her once and she does it.” Yasmeen said. This child
prodigy has a liking for painting, tree planting and singing too. When nature
takes one thing from one’s life it also provides something in abundance.
