Padmasree Dr Mohan Babu announced that he is going to set up a world-class Music University at Sri Vidyanikethan Educational Institutions near Tirupati which is owned by him.
While he visited Tirumala along with maestro Ilayaraja to seek the blessings of Lord Venkateswara, he said that so far there is no Music University in the country. According to him, when he approached Ilayaraja to guide their project, the maestro instantly agreed for it.
Ilayaraja while speaking, “Mohan Babu is one man in the film industry who invested his earnings in the field of education. He won wide acclaim for his gesture of providing 25% free education to the poor and downtrodden, irrespective of cast, creed and religion. The proposed music university will definitely reflect the ancient traditions of India.”
