The urumi troupe appeared and began drumming along toward the birthday boy dressed in white at a food court. Four Indian youths and an elderly man were dressed in traditional attire (Vashti) and accompanied by drums (Urumi melam). The birthday boy was seen excited and vibed along to the birthday beat. As the urumi team was drumming, the whole crowd sang along to the birthday song. This was recorded by one of the birthday team members.
