Antao, alongside C. Alvares, M. Boyer, Prem Kumar, Souza Ferrao, Remmie Colaco, Alfred Rose, and various others, held a deep reverence for the stage and made a conscious effort not to overstep its boundaries.

He received the esteemed 'Lifetime Contribution to Tiatr' award during a special ceremony held at the Pai Tiatrist Auditorium, Ravindra Bhavan in Margao.

Two singers from Cortalim, Noywen Fernandes and Thrizel D'Souza, captivated the audience with their rendition of the popular song "Yo Moga Tum Mhojea Sukha."
