Kids With Superpowers!
They say age is just a number, a limitation that you put on your mind. But meet these four children and you’ll know how true that statement really is. Whether it be Shanmukha Priya who took to singing, the Tated twins who took to skating or Kaamya, the girl who trekked till the Everest base camp, there was no stopping them. There was no telling them that they were young and so could only achieve success directly proportional to their age.
Pride of their parents and now the city, this month we at Yo! give you a sneak peek into the lives of four young achievers from the city. Whether it be singing, skating or scaling new heights, these kids have shined bright and set examples for others to follow.
Wonderkid: Shanmukha Priya
Superpower: Singing
Tenth grader Shanmukha Priya has been wowing everyone, from judges to viewers, on ‘Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Li’l Champs’. She takes some time off her busy schedule for a chat with us.
Growing up in a household where the parents are musically inclined, it is only natural that she be blessed with the musical gene too. Her proclivity was such that she even wanted to learn the tune that played on an alarm clock!
Performing since the age of five, Shanmukha Priya fondly recalls her first performance of ‘Annamacharya Keertana’ in 2008, with her father accompanying on violin. But it was her first TV debut, in the same year, on ‘Little Champs’ that pushed her into the limelight. Since then, there has been no looking back for this versatile singer who sang the title song for the movie ‘Tejam’.

Safety Against Coronavirus
Spreading thick and fast all over the globe, the deadly coronavirus (COVID-19) has claimed about 4000 lives and infected over 100000 people in more than 100 countries. Here are the symptoms, precautions, and the common myths surrounding coronavirus as shared by the World Health Organization (WHO).
REALTY CHECK
The scenic coastal city of Visakhapatnam is slowly emerging as a preferred destination to live and work in for many. Whether it be the promise of the region becoming an executive capital or the hope that the Bhogapuram International Airport will be a milestone-marker, the real estate scenario is booming like never before. A range of projects are now seeing the light of day, each promising incremental value. One can choose from gated communities to residential villas or plots of land for investment. Commercial properties are on the rise too, with new companies trying to find a foothold in the region. With all these elements, the city is poised for remarkable prospects in the days to come. The Yo! team interacts with a few of the city’s top realtors, who talk about the market, their projects and share expert insights.
THE PELICAN BRIEF
On a chilly Sunday morning, Krishna Diwakar took a memorable trip to Teelinalapuram Bird Sanctuary. He shares insights from this visit organized by the Eastern Ghats Wildlife Society (EGWS).
DREAM CATCHERS
From seeing a dream, to striving to achieve it. As the world celebrates International Women’s Day in the month of March, we at Yo! take inspiration from some amazing women in the city. With each of them having a unique story behind their achievements, and diverse scale of operations, these 40 women prove that all one needs to do is dream the reality they want to achieve.
VIZAG'S VINTAGE VEHICLES
As the automobile industry continues to amaze us, John Castellas takes us on a sweet ride in the earliest motorcars of the city.
WISHLIST 2020
Marking the end of the teen-years, 2020 holds a lot of promise for all of us. Here’s all that the city wishes for this year.
TRAILBLAZING INTO TOMORROW
From spreading laughter to hip-hoppin’ in style, the city has always been a hub of talent. This month, we at Yo! introduce you to three clubs with unusual agendas. Not for them the been-there’s and the done that’s as they chart new paths and head to newer destinations. And for all those who still think that Vizag is a quiet city with limited options, these are amazing examples of the possibilities and opportunities we have now woken up to.
QUEBEC CALLING
Quebec city, the capital city of Canadian province Quebec, is a popular travel destination among tourists. Hema Kanchipati shares notes from her memorable trip to this largely French-speaking city.
KITCHEN GEMS
In a fast paced life, there has been one constant the delectable aroma of Gond ke Laddu. “Passed down through generations, this delight defines a Rajasthani-winter-kitchen morning”, says Karuna Neotia, a Marwari homemaker in the city.
Helming the Metropolis
