Events
With the events at Blithchron we guarantee 100% satisfaction. The events are filled with innovation and ingenuity, from first year students coming with a brand new approach to organizing a festival. Hoping to start a trend that turns into our legacy. Each of our events offers something new for people with varied interests. Dance, music, literary and art events form the backbone of our festival. Our motto for organizing this festival has been to bring about change. Being the pioneer batch has also made us realize what it means to start from scratch and build into something magnificent. So from the entire Blithchron team we hope to see you on the 14th and 15th of March.
*String Theory
Metal, Folk, Goth, Rock!! The road to victory has been laid for those who dare to engage the crowd. Let the quiescent awake and arouse! Be there to feel to heat. When the bands take center stage in an all out attempt to create some wicked music...
*Solo Impromptu Dance
Scorch the dance floor to the infusion of music played.... Guaranteed to make your mind work as fast as your feet. A novel challenge for any freestyle master, the trick is just to pick up the beat faster. Having a selection of songs that will mix Anu Malik. And Snoop Dog, D.J. Suketu and Usher.
*Condensed Classics
2 hours of a classic play where you don't understand a word is not my idea of a perfect evening. So Condense, compress, shake and mix a famous play into something that has a hint of you and still remains true to the original. But remember the plays are limited and we are restricted by how audiences react to seeing the same play twice. If you wait too long to register you might not get to kiss your dear Juliet, instead you have to settle with dying Caesars death.
*Parley:(Impromptu debate)
The battle lines have been drawn. There will be bloodshed and slain warriors shall have no burial grounds. Your English must to be immaculate and your ideas top notch. Your arsenal must have the most potent weapons because a lethal verbal assault is all that separates you from certain death.
*Fine-tuned
Render an existing song in your voice and music and present it with an entirely new feel. Select an existing Hindi or English song, keep the lyrics throw in the music of another song and give it your own unique tune. So 'inspire' that composer in you, throw on a cap, and hum your creation (but not nasally!!!)
*Synchronize
Make your team, choose your theme, load you favourite tune, and let the dance make the audience swoon.
*Promotional Atyaachaar (Mad ads)
Crazy advertisements, wacky jingles, utterly useless products? We'll sell 'em for ya! Give Prahlad Kakar, Prasoon Joshi and Aluiqe Padamsi a run for their money...and prove to the world you truly can sell ice to an Eskimo.
*Jobless
Limited Job Vacancies open- Freshies may apply, at their own risk. You and your partner are split into 2 groups- the interviewer and the prospective employee. Interviewers face participants from different teams and test them to see whether they are up to the task. Prospective employees start up with the same resume and face the heat of the interviewer's questioning.
*Admit One
Movies getting too predictable? Think you can do a better job? Grab a camera convince some undiscovered actors and "get busy". The only catch being Gabbar can't die and Raj and Simran can't live happily ever after. Create an unpredictable ending for some of the classics. Creativity will earn you more brownie points than cinematographic excellence.
*The butler did it
A crime has taken place- and Sherlock Holmes is on paternity leave and you have been brought in to replace his oversized shoes, every new Sherlock should have his own Watson. Weave through the devious maze of misquoted testimony, personal motives, planted or tempered evidence and create a crime story which will grip the reader by the scruff of his collar till he reaches the anxious end. Your ingenuity is your only friend, and your imagination is the only thing that restricts the end
