जोश फौंडेशन के परफ़ॉर्मन्स से हुए दर्शक भावुक।


बॉम्बे वेस्ट के रोटरी क्लब द्वारा आयोजित धडकन कार्यक्रम  विकलांगता के आसपास की रूढ़िवादी बाधाओं को तोड़ने में सक्षम है। विभिन्न संस्थानों से  400 से अधिक बच्चों ने इस कार्यक्रम में भाग लिया। मुकेश पटेल ऑडिटोरियम में आयोजित टैलेंट हंट और फैशन शो में 100 से अधिक बच्चों ने भी प्रस्तुति दी। डॉ। जयंत गांधी और ऑडियोलॉजिस्ट-स्पीच थेरेपिस्ट देवांगी दलाल के नेतृत्व में JOSH फाउंडेशन  के बच्चों ने भी पुलवामा हमले के पीड़ितों के लिए एक भावनात्मक श्रद्धांजलि के साथ प्रदर्शन में भाग लिया।


   देवांगी दलाल ने कहा, "हम लोगों को यह बताना चाहते हैं कि ये बच्चे असहाय नहीं हैं, उनकी शारीरिक स्थिति उनके सपनों को पूरा करने के लिए कोई समस्या नहीं है!" अंत में, इन विशेष बच्चों के चेहरे पर खुशी और हंसी हमें समाज की 'अक्षम' भ्रांतियों की परिभाषा के बारे में सवाल पूछती है।
