Every parent will tell you their child is special, but a select few will help kids take their talents and success to incredible levels and international platform.

Holly Rodrigues is a Grade 9 student at Fr. Agnel Ashram, Verna-Goa. What sets him apart from other children of his age is that he is an emerging talent and getting refined each passing day.

Extraordinary God-given talent and his interest to nurture it are appreciable.

Interestingly, Holly’s passion for singing began quite early. The little star, hailing from Gandaulim, Colva, has till now featured on various stages across Goa, singing in many shows. He has taken part and won many competitions too at different levels. 

Holly’s notable performances have been in Alfi de Divar's drama – ‘Pakkam’, Marcos Gonsalves ‘Mojea Mamachea Ganvant’ and ‘Pikki Pikki Kazule’, JVR Productions – ‘Giddh’.
