Rajagopal Aiyer, the CEO of Udaya Samudra called on everyone present to be part of the ‘Sagar bacchao’ program aimed at cleansing the ocean from Kanyakumari to Kasaragod. Jackson Peter, managing director of Bond Safari, Kovalam said that ocean pollution, ocean accidification and climate change are three major challenges that humanity face and it is high time that people understand this and work towards making an attempt to keep the delicate balance of nature intact. The event was inaugurated by actor Unni Mukundan at Udaya Samudra hotel at Kovalam. Mukesh and his wife Mythili were also present at the occasion.
The team then geared up in a themed protective gear. They were given a training and afterwards allowed to dive into the ocean for the music release. The event was held at Groove Beach, Kovalam. Udaya Samudra resort, is one of the most sought after places for a stay at Kovalam.
