Magician Vasanth was recently honoured with an international honour — the Award for Excellence in the Art of Illusions. “I consider it as a matter of pride as I received it along with several personalities who won it for excellence in their respective fields. One of the awardees was chess champion and Grandmaster Gary Kasparov,” he recalls.
The Global Leadership Awards was hosted at The Putrajaya International Convention Centre in Malaysia. It is recognised by the Malaysian Government. He also performed an eight-minute magic act on the stage before taking home the award.
“Except in Australia, Africa and the U.S., we have performed shows across the globe. We have a long association with Kuala Lampur, Singapore, Malaysia and the West Asian countries. One of the jury members has seen us perform many times and that’s how the recognition came to us. It motivates us to perform better,” he says..
