At the outset I congratulate magazine commi ee for
pu ng forth the edi on of Kshi j for the year 20132014. College ac vi es, achievements of students and
staff, students’ views are beau fully put together in the
magazine.
Theme of this year’s magazine is Young’s modulus.
It is the metric of object’s s ffness. It is named a er
Bri sh scien st ‘Thomas Young’. Some materials show
deforma on or change. Some materials are s ff and do
not show deforma on.
Like materials we can also classify people as s ff
people who are not ready for any change and others
who enjoy changes in life, they are flexible.
People in second category, accept change in their
living place, living style or surrounding. They are open to
new friends and colleagues. They look for changing job
responsibili es and accept changing roles. Such people
are rich in experiences and are confident. They carry
posi ve energy and make you feel comfortable. In spite
of their age they look fresh and ‘Young’. What we can
say about their ‘Young’s modulus’?
Change is the feature of progressing life. Welcome
changes and challenges in life those will make your
‘Kshi j’ wide.

Innova on has come a
long way since the inven on
of the telephone, airplanes,
semiconductors have become
a part of our everyday life
andlast century is testament
to its impact on society.
Society is moving forward
into an age of knowledge and
cri cal thinking. We call upon
our students to develop the habit of thinking out of the
box and in turn, become capable to innovate.
Our college encourages crea vity in the students,
facilitates it through events like innova on, Avishkar,
Techno – tryst, Techno – sphinx and Trinz. To promote
self-learning, resources like e-books, journals both
na onal & interna onal, NPTEL lectures, English
language lab and a well-updated library are available.
College takes efforts to groom students for the
corporate world. EATON in associa on with CII
conducted the Garnishing Talent Program for third year
students. This year we have ini ated English language
training for second year students. To develop the overall
personality of students, cultural and sports ac vi es are
encouraged.
The NSS team has brought about a lot of social
awareness through various ac vi es like flash mobs,
lectures, blood dona on camp & visits to orphanages.
But the high point of the year were the talks delivered
by renowned social worker Smt. Sindhutai Sapkaland
esteemed historian Shivshahir Babasaheb Purandare.
So, overall a successful year for college!
I wish you all the best for a bright future.

magazine is a pla orm to our students to present their innova ve ideas.

The demography of India is rapidly changing and by 2020 it is set to become the youngest country in the world! The
crux of the situa on is to tap into the huge poten al that this unique age group has. A boy a emp ng to paint the sky,
as depicted in the cover page, speaks volumes about the audacity of the young minds to dream and the courage to
achieve it. With them there are numerous possibili es; each unique and incredible! And their greatest strength perhaps
is flexibility and adaptability. Hence the name Young’s Modulus, which in the physical world signifies the ability of any
material to elongate or compress under stress.
The underlying aim of selec ng this theme was to make our own selves aware of the immense power that we have
and to strive to use it for the good of mankind. While we are busy working or being something, it is also important to
enjoy the process and some mes take a moment to appreciate the greatest story that will ever be wri en – our lives.
Hope you enjoy this issue. Happy reading!

An appeal from the Dead
Dear All,
I am very eager to talk to you about something. Please spare a minute and read it till the end.
I am the voice of a little baby girl and I have a dream. I know my mom will pamper me as I grow up. She
thinks I will reflect her childhood and she will relive her’s again. My dad will be my superhero. I will soar
the skies proudly sitting on his shoulders. Look! My brother has already started preparing the list of gifts
he would gift me on the countless Rakshabandhans to come.
I think I will become an astronaut, because for me the sky is not the limit. Like my brother I too am going
to make my parents proud one day. Have I told you about my prince charming? He will be madly in love
with me and be there for me in my every little victory and loss.
My aspirations are same as you except for one fact i.e.You are alive and I am dead!
I died just two days ago suffocating in the womb. Cause of my death is commonly known as ‘Abortion’. It
was because the family didn’t want me. But I thought, once I grow up I will sort all my issues with them. I
would have loved them so much they would forget the fact that they once had denied my existence. Alas!
I wasn’t even given a chance to take my first breath in this world. Don’t sympathize me, I’m tired of all
the meaningless words. What I want is a chance to see this world. Chance to experience everything good
bad ugly! Can you give me that!?
Bless yourself girl, you got this million dollar chance to live love and grow old. Is being a girl that big a
crime to rob me of life. What is the difference in being a girl apart from the biological make? There are
millions of the likes of me being slaughtered under the illusion. Yes an illusion that exists, despite all the
education and degree that people earn. Who will think of us? You will read this article, feel sorry and then
forget. This is the reason there is still female foeticide in India.
No Nirbhaya law or any Nirbheek gun can change the scenario until girls themselves make a resolution
to change the mind-set of the society. So will you take my voice forward? The society has managed to
suppress mine! But you can reach out easily. Fight for girl’s dignity and help them to be independent. See
to it that your father, brother, husband, son & friends respect women. Let the girl community appreciate
each other’s existence.
You have got a valuable chance make the most of it my friend and go thank your parents for it.I believe if
each one of you will contribute to better the plight of our situation then there won’t be second girl like me.
All the best! Have good life!
Yours hopefully
An Indian girl.

Corruption- a socially accepted malpractice can be literally defined as moral detonation for greed of
money or position in life. Perhaps, we the Indians have completely embedde this vice, this social disease
in our blood, in our character, in our life.
The coin word corruption has devastated our country from golden era to one of poor country in
world. India ranks 185 on International corruption scale & this is an extremely shameful thing for all of us.
So who is responsible for corruption? Friends, we all are responsible for it in some way. Corruption starts
with a small amount & later it takes form of big monster like CWG scam, 2G scam etc. which amounts to
near about 75 thousand crores which a common man cannot even express in words.
Now corruption in India has become an axis between politicians, bureaucracy & criminals. There are
delay tactics, red tapism, & other kind of harassment by government officials. Now people have become
interest oriented rather than nation oriented. In any way this is all because of degradation of value system
of India.
So why has corruption become last stage cancer? This is because of our nature of unnecessary
tolerance; lack of public outcry & lack of opposition to such malpractises.W3e have sowed an evil plant
which grows like a wild fire, knowing no bounds, crushing morals, ethics & lives in whole world. Thousands of people are literally murdered everyday due to lack of medicinal facilities even though crores of
rupees are sanctioned for it. This cannot be blamed to destiny. These are victims of corruption. This has
led to poverty, unemployment, sucides of farmers, starvation deaths….But WHO CARES? We just have
closed our eyes right? Out of total collected only 10% reach to us in form of development. Rest 90% is
consumed by corrupts.
Friends, corruption can be eradicated only & only when every child of our motherland, will rise
together with dogged determination to fight against it. Basically, we must be the frontrunners in this fight.
We should promise ourselves that we will never ever indulge in bribery. We should elect good character
politicians. There should be electoral reforms, full proof laws with no discretion. There are many things
to do, provided we are eager to do it.
After 64 yrs of injustice, exploitation, poverty & corruption, it is time today to change India
today for better tomorrow. Remember NOW OR NEVER. Friends, let us take an oath today that we will
come together to kill the devil of corruption to lit the lamp of morality & ethics in order to bring back the
golden glory of India….

Youngest country, oldest leaders!
Incredible is an often heard epithet for India. Politics is a science to manage the country or
state. Youth is an active worker
of nation. A combination of
both will indeed be incredibly
awesome. Alas! The majority
doesn’t believe in it and hence it
is not encouraged. On the contrary politics is equated to corruption, malpractices and muscle power. So should the youth
enter the politics? Indeed this
question mark doesn’t suit the
proclamation above, because,
yes of course! Youths should
participate in politics.
Joining politics should be by
design not an accident .Despite
the presence of youth wings of
all major parties , the role of the
youth in national politics is inadequate. In the current Parliament, which has a mean age of
53 yrs, there are only 79 leaders who are under 42. Most of
them are well educated. Moreover most of the young leaders
are those who have an influential political background to back
them up. BRITAIN, the country
from which we derived much of
our political framework, boasts
of a 43 year old PM in David
Cameron. Our neighbor Pakistan, recently appointed a 34
year old Hina Rabbani Khar as
their foreign minister. Can we
say the same for our country? In
India, none of the young MP’s
have been considered good
enough to head an important
ministry and have always been
appointed as junior ministers.
On the whole, the young politicians comprise of only 10 percent of the total clan. Here are
some of them.
I) Supriya Sule: - from the Nationalist Congress Party and currently an MP for the Pune constituency in Maharashtra.
II) Rahul Gandhi: - Often advertised as the future Prime Minister of India.
III) Agatha Sangma:-Representing the Tura constituency of
Meghalaya, on the ticket of Nationalist Congress Party. Agatha
is the youngest MP in the Indian

Wanted! – 21 year old with an engineering degree
One of the most distinguished
scientists in India, Dr. A. P. J Abdul Kalam’s addressed the engineering students from around
150 institutes at BITS Pilani
saying, “There are two kinds
of politicians, political and developmental. Our politicians at
the moment are doing political
politics. What we need is developmental politics which you can
give.” This definitely is in view
of realising his dream of India
2020. India, the world’s largest
democracy does indeed requires
the best minds to make it big
and we the ENGINEERS are
capable of carrying the torch.
The incredible debutants of
2013, the AAP catalysed this
with a question in our engineered minds, ‘CAN WE BE
THE REPLACEMENT?’. Rop-
ing in IITians (or any engineer)
as leaders has created a buzz
in the political atmosphere.
Though, was prevalent earlier, it
started surfacing after the much
in news AAP’s massive victory.
Taking their cue all other political parties are scrambling to
make changes in governance.
Statistically around 30 to 40%
of the politicians are engineers
(or science graduates). The engineers who became prominent politicians and leaders are
Manohar Parrikar- IIT Bombay,
Arvind Kejriwal- IIT Kharagpur, Digvijay Singh, Prithviraj
Chavan- BITS Pilani . The most
amazement occurred when Kejriwal announced 3 engineers
as part of his 8 member cabinet
ministers’ team. To match the
trend, the latest IT professional
Young Politician
Agatha K. Sangam
(born July 24, 1980):
Represents the Tura constituency of Meghalaya on
the ticket of Nationalist Congress Party (NCP).
She heads the ministry of Rural development for
the state. Agatha has a LLB degree from Pune
University and also a Masters in Environmental
Management from Nottingham University, UK. or engineer to enter into politics
are Nandan Nilekani and V Balakrishnan- both former employs
of Infosys.
Glancing at the rigorous curriculum of engineering , we are
trained to perform under high
pressure , taught to improvise on
the spot and think out of the box
, taught to be logical and objective. Through the various fests
and activities that we organise
we even become a little of managers. Our college has a student
panel too which is like the mini
government. What more do we
want in form of inspiration to
urge us to participate in the process of running this country? Or
are we waiting for somebody to
tell us what to do?

Xenophobia
WHAT
WE
CAN
DO?
America? If it is so then, America is nowhere near
being a post-racial haven.
Not long ago Americans celebrated the 50th
anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King’s acclaimed
“I Have a Dream” speech, but have they really
progressed as a nation? Have they triumphed over
the obstacles of injustice and racism? Have they
lived up to what Dr. King envisioned? Evidently
not, because it is 2013 and Nina Davuluri, Miss
America 2014, is receiving racist backlash for her
heritage.
Looking at the other side of the coin, ideas about
what kind of woman could adequately represent
America have evolved over time. Originally, nonwhite women were not allowed to participate
in the contest. It wasn’t until 1970 that a black
woman competed. Since 1983, eight AfricanAmerican women have worn the Miss America
crown.
However, time and again, such bigotry sometimes
compels us to think that “Is America really passing
the stigma of Color discrimination? A superpower
leads by example, so what example is the United
States of America setting for the world to follow,
because a developed country is the one where
everyone lives in harmony with each other , only
then can it be the epitome of development in all
aspects.
Life is too short for acquiring knowledge. Student life is mainly
meant for studies. A student who devotes his full energy and time
to his studies is a good son of his motherland. India needs mentally alert and able young men and women. It is the duty of students
to acquire as much knowledge as they can during their student life.
Let's think about is!
KSHITIJ 2014
The Oxford dictionary describes xenophobia as
‘intense or irrational dislike or fear of people from
other countries’. The very recent victim of this is
Nina Davuluri, an Indian American to be chosen as
Miss America 2014. Nina, a 23 years independent
medical student of Indian origin was back lashed
with racist comments related to the proximity of
the event date to the 9/11 anniversary and to antiIndian sentiment in American social media. News
agencies cited tweets that misidentified her as
Muslim or Arab, associated her with groups such
as Al-Qaeda, and questioned why she was chosen
over Miss Kansas Theresa Vail.
Most of the people watching the Miss America
pageant did not realize that Nina Davuluri is
American — or they just chose not to. The
24-year-old — who was born in Syracuse, N.Y.,
meaning she’s a U.S. citizen — received a
degree in brain behavior and cognitive science
from the University of Michigan, earning both
the Michigan Merit Award and recognition from
National Honor Society. Does this by any means
connect her to Al-Qaeda?
America is one of the biggest superpowers of the
world, with a history of racial discrimination, so
what is it about colour that they cannot seem to
let go, or is it just that Americans cannot stand
the fact that Indians are proving themselves in

Role of Youth in free India
“YOUTH WILL RESHAPE THE WORLD”, as
all the educationists say and believe; if youth can
reshape the world, then it is not too much to expect of the educated youths in India to save the nation from the evils with which it is afflicted today,
almost 7 decades after Independence. And if this
has to be turned into reality, then it is no wrong
to expect the Nation to look forward to its youth
to solve the grave problems that it is facing at the
stroke. The hindrances in our development are
poverty, overpopulation, unemployment, illiteracy
and above all, not forgetting to mention ‘CORRUPTION!’
As Students it is our prime responsibility to fulfil
our duties promptly and with utmost efficiency.
But it is a matter of fact to wonder if we really
are stepping towards its fulfilment. Let’s take for
example, our Voting ID’s. Already being admitted
into to a graduation course, I’m sure most of them
might have crossed 18 and do possess a right to
vote, elect political parties and make country a better place to live in. But have we actually entered
the process? The question remains unanswered.
Most of them don’t even possess a Voting ID and
those who do, refrain from their responsibility of
casting a vote. This is just one side of the coin;
rather a part of it.
Next, the other example! Our adult population recently when announced in all seriousness that the
proposed Sardar Patel statue in Gujarat will be the
WHAT
WE
CAN
DO?
tallest in the World, they actually sounded like a
Dubai Sheikh taking credit for the highest building, biggest Island, or the largest Aquarium; something not for public good but for guinness book
of records. Since its estimated cost is proposed to
be a gigantic Rs. 2500 CRORE , many people argued that such money should instead go to public
health, education, and a tireless battle against poverty. Unfortunately against the onslaught of wily
political craft and expediency, they were fated to
cry till hoarse.
There are innumerable such examples to be given,
but the point is we being contributing for the betterment. The narrow loyalties and the lethargy of
people need to be shuddered off. It is not easy to
solve these problems here and now, nothing hard
and fast, agree! But at least a sincere beginning
can be made and for this we can look forward to
the spirited, enthusiastic youth to work on the areas where we currently lack. The Youth can, with
their dedicate efforts and devotion inspire people
to shake off their vitiation which has paralysed
most of them into inaction. Since Youngsters are
just beginning their life they are free from corruption and yet not affected by evils to which the elder citizens are fallen today.
And so let’s just stop adding years to our life and
start adding life to our years by contributing a bit
of self to empower our future generations and ultimately our motherland ‘INDIA!’
It becomes the most important duty of students to be fully disciplined. They
should be disciplined in every thought and action. No one can become
disciplined in a day. We have to practice it in every day of our life. We will be
doing a great service to the nation, if they become disciplined. It is essential
in their classrooms as well as in their life outside schools and colleges. The
damaging of public property, burning of buses etc., are all signs of indiscipline.
They are anti national activities. Students must not indulge in them.

What a comeback!
Satyamev Jayate has painted a different shade in
the dull history of television show comebacks. In
an age of “ty” and “HBD” I am going to refer to
it as SMJ! I decided to ask my fellow mates as
to what they think of it. Let me begin by saying
that, it was a fine bright Sunday morning when the
hostel common room was filled with people glued
to the T.V. And this was when the first episode of
season 2 was aired.
“Abuse against women is as much part of today as
google and whatsapp. Hearing of it
day in and day out
sure dulls its impact, but when everything is put together and the big
picture presented
(as SMJ does) it
reignites the horror and outrage in
you.” says one. In
other words, they
place issues right
underneath your
nose. You can’t
brush it away, you can’t ignore it. No other option
but to face it. But when I sceptically commented
that the effect is short term plus all we do is talk,
a second year student who participated in the first
episode - Pranoti Dhamal said “The show aired
on T.V is just the tip of the iceberg. Few months
before the episode we had a ‘I respect women because…’ campaign in Pune , which got an overwhelming 5000+ response in a day. Also the discussion on rape went on for five hours with a lot
of experts from various fields participating in it.”
At this point a doubt that creeps into the mind is
how good is their story? A theory or a hypothesis
is judged by the amounts of facts that back it up.
And this is why SMJ scores very high in terms
of credibility. Be it experts, Court rulings, social
workers etc. related to the field or the very victims, they rope in quite the right mix of people and
facts. Another mighty impressed student had to offer “What I like about the show is that it digs up
dirty inconvenient truths buried in the daily din.”
Quite true!
We all have heard
about the Nirbhaya
case and known
that it is not the
only one out there.
Most of us are also
accustomed to the
perception of police in public eye.
But how many of
us have actually
pondered over the
reason of it happening let alone
inspecting it in different angles. And
that is what I personally like about the show. They
take up an issue and dissect it layer by layer. As
was the case when they started with the dismal
condition of police chowkies and moved on to bullying by politicians and seniors, finally ending it
with a comparison with the British task force.
Summing it all up in my roommate’s words – A
deep chasm can’t be filled in a day. We can’t expect an immediate revolution. But if we practice
being aware, being empathetic then change, even
if gradual, will happen. And when it does we won’t
have any reservations in embracing it.

My Journey to the red planet
As a child, I was always filled
with a sense of awe when I
looked up at the beautiful night
sky. The celestial phenomena,
the stars and planets kept me
spellbound and as I looked
up through my telescope I
dreamed of sailing among
those stars. This was the start
of my personal journey. My
dream of becoming an Astronaut!
It was not until last December, 2013 that my outrageous
dream of being an Astronaut
was a step closer to reality.
Mars-One, a ‘not-for-profit’
Dutch organization envisioned
a manned human colony on
Mars by 2025. After passing
through a rigorous application
process, I and 1057 other applicants were selected from an
international pool of 2,00,000.
I was the youngest astronaut
from all over the world just at
18! I was ecstatic. The mission
supported by leading scientists,
researches, astronauts seeks to
ultimately choose four people
who will embark on the brave
journey to Mars to establish the
first human colony.
A demonstration mission and
communication satellite is
scheduled to launch in 2018
followed by a Mars Rover in
2020 which will prepare the
surface for the arrival of cargo
including the inflatable pods
for the Astronauts. Two years
The Mars-One mission symbolizes the effort put forward
by all countries to expand in
the solar system. With a total
of four rounds, the application
process will end in 2015 and
four names will be announced.
I strongly wish that one day my
dream of becoming an astronaut will be fulfilled!
Stay tuned for the next giant
Mechanical Marvels :
Clockwork Dreams
“If you really want to understand something , then what you should
do is build it.”
Documentary presented by Professor Simon Schaffer which charts the
amazing and untold story of automata - extraordinary clockwork
machines designed hundreds of years ago to mimic and recreate life.
The film brings the past to life in vivid detail as we see how and why
these masterpieces were built. Travelling around Europe, Simon
uncovers the history of these machines and shows us some of the most
spectacular examples, from an entire working automaton city to a
small boy who can be programmed to write and even a device that
can play chess. All the machines Simon visits show a level of technical
sophistication and ambition that still amazes today.

WHAT
WE CAN
DO?
A nation does not live by
its big factories, dams
or buildings. It can live
only by the character
of its people. During
three hundred years of
foreign rule, our moral
character was shaken.
Students are yet in the
process of training. It
is their sacred duty to
build up their character.
They must learn from
the very beginning the
lesson of self-help, selfreliance and self-sacrifice.
These are the essential
qualities of character
which they must acquire.
They should learn to cooperate with each other
in their class-rooms,
on playgrounds and in
other activities of college
life. For them no duty is
of greater importance
than the development of
character.

later in 2022 the essential life
support system (LSS) will
reach Mars and make the outpost operational by 2023. Before the crew arrival in 2025
the LSS will produce a liveable
environment of 0.7 bar pressure, 3000 litres of water and
120 kg oxygen in storage. With
the technology in hand, the
only hurdle is finance.

The Wonders of Youngistaan !!!
This year with the theme of Kshitij as Young’s Modulus , I introduce you to five Kids who have redefined
the meaning of “ age has no bar “ . These kids though small in age and experience have proven that they
are passionate about their dreams as any other person.
Sanjay and Shravan kumar :
Meet 12 year old Shravan and 10
year old Sanjay. Apart from being
kids , these two are the President
and CEO respectively of their
company Go Dimensions, making them the youngest CEO’s of
India and also youngest promoters of a company who are studying in Class VIII and Class VI at a
Chennai school. The focus of their
company is to develop mobile application primarily in in the area
of Education, Games, Lifestyle &
Convenience for the IOS and android Platform.
Their first product Catch me Cop, a mobile application was showcased at Apple’s App Store in only two
months of its launch. In the CatchMeCop game application, a convict escapes from prison and there is a
nationwide hunt for the convict. The convict has to run through a desert, a beach and a maze to outsmart
the cops. There are multiple levels of this application, which saw nearly 2,000 downloads in the first
month of development. The other popular applications include Apple’s App Store Alphabet Board which
is a learning app for iPhone and iPad, Prayer Planet for religious prayers of distinct communities and Colour Pallette, a learning app for kids to learn colours.
When most adults have trouble understanding Java code, these two kids have used the code to build mobile applications. The brothers have together developed four apps for the Apple Store, which have been
downloaded more than 10,000 times from 20 countries.
Akrit Jaswal
Next in line is Akrit Jaswal, who made it to the headlines at the tender age of 7, when he singlehandedly
conducted a surgery upon a girl to separate her fingers
that had become joined due to severe burns. Well, that
was almost 6 years back. Today, at the age of 17 he
is more popularly known as the smartest kid his age.
He is presently working on earning himself a master’s
degree in applied chemistry, Botany and Zoology.
When Akrit turned six, doctors at local hospitals took
notice of his interest in Anatomy and Medical science
and started allowing him to observe surgeries. Inspired by what he saw, Akrit read everything he could
on the topic. At the age of 7 Akrit was approached
by an impoverished family that had heard about his
amazing surgical abilities, to request him to operate upon their daughter for free.
Her surgery was such a huge success that people began flocking from far and wide to seek his advice on
related problems. After the surgery, Akrit was hailed as a medical genius.
He was soon admitted to Punjab University and thus became the youngest student ever to attend an Indian
University. That same year, he was also invited to London’s famed Imperial College to exchange ideas
with scientists on the cutting edge of medical research.
He has also appeared on oprah winfrey show on a segment dedicated to the most talented Kids.
Talking of his dreams Akrit has once revealed that he has millions of medical ideas, but he’s currently
focused on developing a cure for cancer. ‘I’ve developed a concept called oral gene therapy on the basis
of my research and my theories,’ he says. ‘I’m quite dedicated towards working on this mechanism,’ the
prodigy added. “I’ve been going to hospitals since the age of 6, so I have seen firsthand people suffering
from pain, I get very sad, and so that’s the main motive of my passion for medicine, my passion about
cancer,” adds Akrit.
At the age of 15, Angad Daryani, isn’t your usual
teenager studying for his SSC exams. Instead he is
a school dropout-turned-entrepreneur.The home
schooled teenager has already built India’s first 3D
printer using DIY kits and wants to bring 3D printing
to every household.
He plans tp launch SharkBot, which is said to be “the
fastest and most robust desktop 3D printer that can
print any material except metal”.He decided to build
3D printer when he realized that people are importing
these printers at a very high cost. He revealed that the
cost of these printers is less than Rs 30,000. At the
moment, he spends four hours every day working on
SharkBot and already sells kits to help people make
build 3D printers.
Daryani had keen interest in technology from a very
young age and built his first humanoid robot when he
KSHITIJ 2014

was just eight year old. He built a remote-controlled hovercraft in Class 6 by watching YouTube videos.
By 13, he was building his own versions of the open source RepRap 3D printer. He now owns a company
that sells DIY kits and Shark Kits to build just about everything from portable speakers to headphones and
power supplies.
Daryani has been constantly creating and making things ever since he was a child and is an advocate of
using open source software and devcies so others can improve and build upon his work. He now builds
mechanised products on robotics, automation and electronics technology fests and several other competitions. As for his thoughts on school curriculum, he believes that computer programming should be made
compulsory for all students, just like English or Mathematics.
Sindhuja Rajaraman
Meet 14-year-old Sindhuja Rajaraman, the CEO
of Seppan, a Chennai-based animation company
launched only in October last. And we’re not kidding.
A ninth-standard student, she was adjudged the fastest 2D and 3D animator by software lobby Nasscom
at the Gaming and Animation Conclave 2010 at Hyderabad. Interestingly, she is also a brand envoy of
design software major Corel Software.
As head of this nascent firm, today she may give
tough competition to some of the top CEOs when it
comes to taking business decisions, that too quickly.
But where did she start?
It all started five years back when she wanted to take
my mind off studies and do something new.Her father, who is a cartoonist, instilled in her the passion
to do animation and taught her the entire process.She
did her first mini animation project when she was in sixth standard on ‘do not disturb animals
Things started rolling right when Sindhuja was offered by First Planet to work as Seppan’s chief executive. With an investment of Rs 10 lakh, First Planet seeded the firm and the entire thing happened within a
day. “I did not even know what a CEO meant that time,” she says. And in a short span, she was handling
three projects – Virtual Street, Garbo.in and First Planet.
The Virtual Street project is about Thyagaraj Nagar, the shopping hub of Chennai where Seppan plans to
showcase the entire area through animation while Garbo.in is a job for a Chennai based NGO to promote
waste segregation methods.
The third project is for her parent company. “It is a small animation film for freshers who want to join a
new company.
People who work with her also have loads of praise. Colleague M Partheepan says: “Though I have five
years’ experience, there is lot that I have learnt from her. She possesses lot of technical skills which even
I did not know.” “She is very creative and comes out with ideas within fraction of seconds during our
routine meetings,” he added
This brings us to the end of our introductory session. There are many such kids apart from these whose
stories are inspirational and unbelievable at the same time. Many would feel that these stories are unreal
but they are indeed very much real. These kids give us a proof of how harnessing the potentials of kids
could do wonders. A salute to all these kids and to those who noticed their talents and helped them build
on those to achieve their dreams.

Being engineers we have
busy schedule, but are we all
really that busy? Busy doing
assignments, completions and
submissions? Well if that’s how
our day goes like then we are
not living it up as an engineer.
In recess time, at the reception
we see a lot of cool posters
hanging ,a few good looking
ones, sometimes people stop us
and talk to us and what do we
think? Why should we spend
time and effort in participating
in a competition when we
are not even sure that we will
get appreciation in return. By
participating in a competition,
you dig deep down into the
subject and realise that it’s fun!
Naturally you may not always
win, and may not do so initially,
but if you keep on competing
you will learn the game and
eventually you will win. I
have been as a participant to
almost every college in the
city, sometimes in a team,
sometimes
individually.
I
began participating in paper
presentation competitions in
my S.E., not knowing what
paper actually means. It began
with ‘Credenz’, where we
submitted a paper on Bluetooth
and it turned out to be 12th std.
students essay. Taking an oath
that we will come back and
leave a trail, we spent the next
3 months on drafting a paper on
QR codes. We got shortlisted at
few places and bagged awards
at some. Every time we learnt
something new. Almost a year
after, we submitted our paper at
‘Credenz’ and it was shortlisted.
We delivered the presentation
and won!
The student competitions allows
one not only to showcase ones
talent but also connect with top
employers, build ones resume,
challenge oneself and realize
ones dreams. The charm of
participating in a competition is
that the outcome is up to us and
our skills but the satisfaction
of mastering something is
incomparable.
One also gets a lot of chances
to volunteer for the alumni meet
or TFS or a NAAC visit or any
other event in the college. To
volunteer is to give ones time.
One gets a taste of disciplined
study. Volunteering gives us
a chance to pay back to the
society who has always given
you knowledge and respect.
That’s about the world.
Being elected as a ‘XYZ’
representative,
for
two
consecutive years I want to
stress on the fact that being a
member of student panel counts.
In most of the cases, if you are an
elected member, people believe
in your leadership skills. We
learn to build a team, to allocate
and use the resources well. The
dedication and determination to
make a difference stays with us
throughout our life pushing us
forward and helping us to change
the world with our actions.
So grab every little chance
that you get in Innovation,
Gandhaar, Pentacle, Eweek,
Technosphinx, Triz or any
other collegiate competition!
Remember ‘We learn as we
grow and we grow as we learn’.

Key to
changing
a memory...
According to an article
in Los Angeles times
in May2013 the key to
changing a memory, or
deleting some portion of it,
may lie in first allowing a
person to “reactivate” it in
its original form. After that,
memories appear highly
amenable to manipulation
before they’re sent back
into storage.

Forgotten already ??
“So Ms. Z draw the biasing circuit of CE amplifier “.
The interviewer from ABC company asked me. With a
jolt I realized that I did not remember the symbol of a
BJT! So I drew a block quoting it as BJT instead!
Later, during discussion with my friend, we realized that
there were so many concepts learnt enthusiastically and
forgotten equally enthusiastically. Though subjects like
History, Chemistry, and Geography etc. come foremost,
the most mind boggling ones were the most recent,
covering the previous four years.
Starting with the First Year of Engineering itself, quantum
physics (what was it about?), titration (what was in the
burette and what was in the pipette?).
We thought, we would have just improved (you know
after entering the department and all that...) but oh boy,
we still had a huge list! The concepts that top the list in not
finding residence in our extremely small memory were:
3 phase transformer (how does it work? Don’t
remember…)
JFET, diac, triac (Symbol? Characteristics??)
The PERFECT definition of an active component?
How did delta-sigma ADC work? (Hmmmm.. Still
thinking…)
S.E. Project: All enthusiastic about building the AM
receiver but never really figured out how did multiplication
actually happen in the circuit? (Oops!)
In a very important subject like Microcontroller
Applications, just one unit on PIC? (Injustice to PICs and
to us too!)
We have been so enthusiastic in forgetting these concepts
that even the best teachers could not salvage the situation...
Sorry teachers.. !
Dear juniors, we hope that you take this up as a challenge
and remember all the concepts till, and even after, you
pass out.

ANNUAL REPORT
Department of Mechanical Engineering
2013-14
It gives me immense pleasure in writing the departmental report for the AY 2013-14. The mechanical department is in the 7th year of growth. After satisfactorily completion of one year as Head of
Mechanical Engg. I feel very proud about my faculty due to their great contribution towards the
development of the department and student’s excellent team work for the every task allotted to them.
The individual faculty is also little bit started thinking of higher studies i.e ME and Ph.D. which is
appreciable. Dr Anuradda Ganesh, Professor - Emeritus IIT Mumbai has been working as Cummins
Chair for the institute and under her valuable guidance the department will grow vertically and move
towards the apex.
The placement of Mechanical students is good for the academic year 2013-14. But from this year
there is challenge to the TE students for the placement in Cummins also as they are asking for the
students with throughout first class. This time BAJA -2014 did not performed well but this unsuccessfulness may open up the right path for the next BAJA-2015 after the critical analysis on the their
performance and of the present vehicle. First time SUPRA is started in the college and we have lot
many expectations from them. I hope the SUPRA team will definitely performed splendidly in technical inspection, maneuoring and endurance race in the competition at Chennai.
The department is in developing stage and has wide scope to provide outstanding facilities of research
for the betterment of the students in upcoming years. The department is looking forward for starting
of PG Course in Mechanical Design and Research Centre. The department is also looking forward
for the fulfillment of short term and long term goals set by the faculty for overall development of the
department. A message to all final year students – be a part of the department, interact and share your
experiences and expectations with the juniors for the betterment of the department , became a active
alumni member, after passing out from such wonderful institution. ALL THE BEST to the students in
their pursuit of an academic Degree at the department.

KSHITIJ 2014
The dream event for every mechanical engineering
student took place from 20th -23rd feb and the
experience was exhilarating. Every aspect of the
manufacturing of the All Terrain Vehicle taught us
something new, something uncommon, something
that you wouldn’t know unless you decided to
venture outside the confines and the comfort
zone of your class room. Our team worked hard
throughout the last 10 months to come up as a
successful team comprising of 23 members from
all years of Mechanical Department. With the
help of faculty advisors our team was able to
overcome numerous obstacles that came our way.
Owing to our extensive research, we cleared the
Virtual round with positive results. To improvise
on our previous vehicle we tried to explore new
possibilities by making unconventional choices
like the use of AISI 1018 steel as our roll-cage
material. Initially, we were a little hesitant due to its
high cost and labour charges. We opted for it owing
to the numerous advantages it offered. We reduced
the weight of the “BAJA buggy”, by switching to a
more light weight and robust material which helped
us overcome the problem we faced last year. The
sub assemblies of the vehicle were also modified
in order to meet standards for driver comfort and
vehicle ergonomics.
Being a part of BAJA, we had the opportunity to gain
hands-on experience of designing and fabricating
an All-Terrain Vehicle. This gave us exposure to
the practical side of Mechanical Engineering and
also to interact with professionals in the same field.
Most importantly we learnt to work as a team and
to value each other’s opinions. When we were on
the BAJA track, our priority was firstly our vehicle
and then our team and lastly ourselves.
Selfless hardwork and dedication was our motto
throughout the event. We did face a breakdown
during the race but owing to our team’s spirit and
quick thinking, we overcame the obstacle. Due to
the driver’s never-say-die spirit and determination,
we completed the race with 23 laps!
Our ever supportive workshop staff and faculty
advisors tirelessly guided us through our endeavour.
The journey has been very educative and
successful and we vow to keep up the winning
spirit, dedication and hard work until we emerge
successful!

In Conversation with
Rahul Rao
Shreeja Nandy
Komal Lagu
What is it that you do?
Basically with infinite journeys and foliage outdoors I along with
three other partners/friends run this company, with a primary focus on
wildlife adventure and trekking.
Infinite journey is a brand – just like any other travel house making
tailor made trip packages. We design holidays for people. But the trips
that we conduct ourselves are essentially focused on nature, wildlife
trekking adventure with a major emphasis on students.
If this issue is resolved effectively and in time, then we save a community from going
against the tigers. Also the people living around the forests depend on resources from it.
Relocation of these villagers is important and has to happen side by side.
What are the places you have covered so far in
your trips?
Within India all places possible like Ladakh in
north to Arunachal in east, Gujarat, Annamalai
hills in the south (possibly all destinations which
have good wildlife), Himalayas. In the last five
years we went to Africa, recently to Antarctica.
At present we are planning to go to Brazil for the
amazon trip. We also have had treks to Nepal and
Bhutan and we will be going shortly to Sri Lanka.
So this is what we are doing currently. These are
trips essentially focused on nature.
How do you identify locations for your trips? Is
there a selection procedure?
We have a calendar that we decide once we are
over with one season. We try to incorporate places
that we haven’t covered before. Then we have a
rekki trip done by our team and then its opened
up to the people. You know you can’t have a trip
without exploring it yourself.
Can you describe your journey so far? How it
all came together? How foliage was instituted.
How old were you when you started FOLIAGE?
21.
(We are amazed...)
This is a profession which is unique in the sense
that it is not mainstream. At that age there is a
lot of peer pressure, parental pressure etc. you
tend to do things which everybody else seems
to be doing. How did you decide to follow this
(passion)?
It was about the right things happening at the
right time. Having the right team. It just clicked
(is what i would really say!) We gave ourselves a
period of a year and we always had our degrees.
But this is what we were intensely passionate
about. And so far it has worked out good! (Smiles)
I must say that we are extremely lucky to have
people around us who are equally passionate.
From a group of just 4 now we are say around 23
in number. The important thing is today we are in
a position to offer a career to likeminded people.
(That is what we are extremely happy about).
I and my three other friends/partners - Gaurav
Purohit, Abhay ganekar, Rahul Bhusari. We
started off this company 14 years ago. Before
that we used to lead/organise camps and treks for
other NGOs. But then we decided to convert our
passion into a full-fledged profession once we
finished our studies......

Who is your idol?
KSHITIJ 2014
Since we have love for nature
our idols are definitely people
who have worked extensively in
this area. David Attenborough.
There are Indians like Fateh
Singh Rathore - pioneer of
wildlife conservation. (They
are who come to my mind
immediately) then B.D Arjun
Singh.
Talking about wildlife and
nature. What are your views
on the need for conservation
at present?
The need for conservation
is not an overnight need. It
didn’t come up yesterday. It
has been there for a while. It
is just that there are too many
people and too less resources
and now people have bigger
aspirations- big house, big roads
etc. Everything is derived from
nature. It (conservation) has
to be a community effort. The
urban population consumes
more than the people living in
the woods, contrary to popular
beliefs.
How much do these trips help
in it?
Wildlife tourism or eco-tourism
if done in proper way helps
the local people in a great way.
It develops infrastructure and
brings in revenue due to influx
of people. Also it indirectly
helps in monitoring species. Say
for example tiger tourism - now
you have a sizeable amount of
people wanting to see tigers and
it brings a lot of pressure on the
authorities since they are paying
to see the tiger. And if it is not
seen then it is reported. So it is
a machinery wherein patrolling
of the tigers are done without
the government having to invest
huge capital.
But there is a negative side
to it too. The tiger show in
Bandhavgarh was banned
because it was particularly
done for the tourists. So how
do you keep in check such bad
practices?
Every activity has to be
controlled and has to be
implemented from the
machinery within. The
government has taken some
steps like reducing the number
of vehicles etc. So there are
things happening. If a tiger
has to go away from that
particular place it can’t be
stopped so tourism is not really
the disturbance. The larger
problem is to restore tiger
corridors. There is also a need
to compensate villagers who
have lost cattle to tiger. So this
is where man-animal conflict
happens. If this issue is resolved
effectively and in time, then we
save a community from going
against the tigers. Also the
people living around the forests
depend on resources from it.
Relocation of these villagers
is important and has to happen
side by side. But unfortunately
due to lack of resources these
things are hard to achieve.
Coming to the technology part
what are the new techniques/
devices that are used now,
which wasn’t there 10 years
back?
Digital photography is one of
the major contributors. It is
used extensively in the field.
Since you don’t have to process
the film immense number of
photos can be clicked. Also
due to the trends of posting
photos in social media lot of
people become aware directly
or indirectly. It’s a change from
when you had to get the photos
printed and pay to take a look
Apart from digital cameras.....
As far as research work
is concerned. Lot of radio
telemetry devices have come
in. GPS tracking (Thinks for
a moment) - Due to the GPS
enabled radio collar we came
to know that a tiger had walked
from Kanha to Pange, which is
a distance of more than few 100
kms. It is incredible! It actually
passed through villages and
inhabited areas.
(His excitement infects us as
well….)
immediately.
Can you tell us about some
of your most memorable
moments?
(Sighs...and grins)
Ohh well there are a lot many...
One or two from India and
the recent Antarctica trip….
We had a killer whale under our
zodiac. That was an amazing
moment. And when a tiger
walks by, (with a sparkle in
his eyes) even after 20years
of observing it doesn’t cease
to amaze you and give you
goosebumps. (Smiles) nature
itself is inspiring and really
special. As for incidents there
are countless.
You have conducted tours
both in India and foreign.
What difference have you
found?
Each day in the wild is
something new and exciting....
There is much better control
and organisation there, maybe
due to less pressure on the
resources…
About your trip to Antarctica,
it is below zero temperatures,
the scenario is different
.Could you tell us more?
Is it that they are more aware
there?
You can visit Antarctica only
in summer - early December.
The warmest temp. for us was 4
degrees. It is once in a lifetime
adventure! I had never thought
that we could go there. The
landscape is untouched and
pristine. One has to actually
see it physically to believe that
something of this magnitude
They are less populated.
Here when the government is
deciding the budget, nature and
wildlife are concerns not at the
top of the list because there
are other pressing concerns
which have to be addressed
Exactly!
and type exists on this planet. It
was really special.
We had a prose about
Antarctica in school,
about the Students on Ice
expedition. It (Antarctica)
has stuck in the mind ever
since.....
The reason of fascination
stems from the difficulty in
accessibility. There is Drake
Passage which is notorious.
Both the oceans come and
meet there. Atlantic and Pacific
coming together gives rise
to huge turbulence .And one
has to cross these for two
days! Also seeing the wildlife
community there survive such
harsh temperatures is a learning
experience.
Polar bears?
No, polar bears are not found
down. They are in the Arctic.
We will be having an expedition
coming July in the Arctic. We
will be able to talk about that
once we return.
Talking about wildlife
photographs what according
to you is a good picture? All of
them are visually stunning!
A picture should speak for
itself. There are various
attributes such as technical etc.
But for a wildlife photograph
it is not that important. The
challenge is to capture the
KSHITIJ 2014
at them. The gear has become
accessible and user friendly. If
you click a picture and can look
at it immediately you have a
chance to improve on it.

moment. A tiger bringing
down a boar - it might not
be technically good, but the
moment itself is so rare, there
can’t be retakes. One has no
control over the subject, very
little reaction time and there
are so many limitations such
as vehicle, location etc. It’s all
about right time, right gear and
right light.
What is your favourite area of
photography?
Everything actually - Birds,
animals and landscape maybe a
little bit more.....
Which was your first camera?
I used a cannon prozumer
(??) and have been using one
throughout. My first one was a
cannon s2is and now i use an
Hs50Is.
While taking a photo have
you ever had the thought
that in the process you
missed enjoying that moment
yourself?
Yes that happens many a times.
We get carried away about
capturing images of what is
happening. All of us, many
We have a few briefing sessions
for the students. Actually wildlife
doesn’t want to harm you it is
usually the other way around.
In and around Pune what are
the hotspots for experiencing
wildlife?
a times, we keep the camera
aside and enjoy. In Antarctica
when the whale was very
close we were just watching
it. Some things are beyond the
camera and one has to learn to
differentiate.
That’s a very difficult decision
to make....
Yes!
When in nature don’t you feel
scared of being in such close
proximity to the untamed
animals?
Not really! What is to be kept
in mind is the right distance
from animal or bird. The animal
usually walks away or gives a
warning if they feel threatened.
This warning has to be identified.
The right kind of knowledge is
important and that is why one has
to travel with people who know
about it. The local knowledge is
also important. The local guides
have immense knowledge about
wildlife.
So before embarking on
journey are there training
sessions?
Around 120kms from Pune
there is Bhimashankar wildlife
sanctuary? The advantage of the
city is its location. In the east
there is dry grassland, in the west
- Ghats. The variety of wildlife is
huge esp. birdlife. 80kms away
there is Tamini where leopards
can be spotted. Kaus plateau is a
lesser known jewel particularly
for flowers.
How do you think, us as youth
should do to contribute to
conservation?
It lies in how well you can plan
your day using minimal resources.
So the introspection has to start.
It shouldn’t be because someone
told you to do so.
Lastly where do you see
yourself in 10 years?
(Confidently)
Well travelling more and more.
Exquisite and exotic places!

- Priti Bharati
True inspiration :
a young techno-women
Could you please share your
experience of being a young
techno-women?
Ans: Technology is for everyone...it doesn’t depend on a person’s gender. When the usage
ratio is almost 50:50, there is not
much reason why the contribution ratio needs to differ. Being
a techno-woman doesn’t make
me feel anything special...unless
treated specially or differently
(treated like a minority).
I don’t wanna believe that a
woman cannot love computers just as much as a man does.
We love to spend 18+ hours of
our day in front of this amazing
machine, we love coding, we
love playing games during those
work intervals....what is it that
makes us any different?
I have been in love with computers since my childhood days.
Later the love got converted into
passion and I took this up as
my career option. Had been an
KSHITIJ 2014
She do not need an introduction. She is a modern Indian tech diva .Being a supporter
of FOSS and presently involved with a few Open Source Communities like Mozilla and
Wikipedia. She is currently an intern at a start-up called ‘Purple Gear Software Pvt. Ltd.’
A developer by profession...a content writer by passion. Technical writings, blogging etc
are her hobbies.
Lets have a look at the nice conversation about her love for technology.
57
58
KSHITIJ 2014
awesome journey for me. From being a Microsoft
trainee to being a Mozilla Contributor...from the
closed source world to the Open Source world, I
have had an awesome journey.
What is this Open source community and what
role do you play here?
Ans: Wikipedia describe Open Source as “Generally, open source refers to a computer program in which the source code is available to the
general public for use and/or modification from its
original design.”
In a layman term, when along with a software,
I have the freedom to modify it in a way I want
to(and the process of doing so being completely
legal)...that is Open Source. One of my friend had
once described it as -”When along with free food
you have the freedom of complaining about it and
also modifying the recipe as per your needs, thats
Open Source.” Open Source projects are all community driven. These projects are never made in
one single room. Hundreds of people from across
the globe work together. The most interesting point
is, not all of these people are paid, some are paid
staffs while some are just volunteers who work
only because they are either passionate towards
the work or towards the mission for which they are
working.
What you love most about technology?
Ans: Technology is ever changing and thus never
can you say you are bored of it. I get to face new
challenges everyday. Thats what I love about technology. Also,technology is power...the power to
build the world wide web!
What are your recent works?
Ans: I am working in an Organization called The
PurpleGear, in Baner. One of the products I am
currently working on is called ‘TalentOjo’, you
can find the product at ‘www.talentojo.com’. I am
currently a PHP developer. Other than work, I do
a lot of things for Mozilla. I began my journey
with Localization and from there after a year and
half,have worked on several different projects and
currently am working with the team of ‘Mozilla
Developer’s Network’ commonly known as MDN.
Tell us about the different challenges you have
ever faced?
Ans: Learning new technology is a challenge in
itself but it is something I love doing.
The biggest challenge we all probably face here in
India is the lack of understanding of Open Source.
‘Why you are contributing to Mozilla’ and ‘Is
Mozilla going to hire you’ are two very famous
questions we have to deal with at all times. Its difficult to explain people the Open Source idea and
the passion that drives us to work for it.
How you find yourself different from the crowd?
Ans: I am not different at all...I am just passionate towards something that not everybody understands. Often at my work place, my colleagues do
not understand me when I talk about Open Source
but more than a challenge I see it as an opportunity
to spread awareness.
Does in any way your life changed after coming
into the world of Mozilla?
Ans: Life has changed in every possible way. My
love for technology has increased to a great extent. The connection and networks build through
Mozilla wouldn’t have been possible otherwise.
When you get a chance of sitting next to David
Walsh and Luke Crouch for 3 days of Workweek in Paris or get a chance of sharing a meal
with Christian Heilmann its an awesomely proud
feeling.
You are a face of Indian women who are crazy
about technology.We would love to know what
and who inspire you to be so passionate?
Ans: The number of female contributors in Open
Source world is really low but Women can’t be
I just do whatever I like and since I like it, I end up
putting my 100% to it.
Hey we would love to hear from you how you
managed to to be so much focused inspite of
many distractions you must be facing everyday?
Ans: You need to focused for work...when its passion, external force is not required. When you love
what you do,your brains coordinate is the most
perfect manner. I am just lucky to be able to make
a carrier out of my passion.
tech savvy is a very wrong concept. I have been
inspired by a lot of women but for sure its Michelle
Baker is at the top of the list. She is a living prove
that a lady can do everything a man can and sometimes even better.
You work in so many areas of technology but
what you love the most?
Ans:I love what I do most...being a Mozilla
Evangelist.
What is your success mantra?
Ans: Well...never had one :P
How you want to see your self in near future?
Ans: I just wanna keep working...leaning is the
main target, the remaining benefits are all just side
effects ;)
Our girls will pass out as an engineer and indeed
they are crazy about technology so please give
some message for our young minds?
Ans:I am not sure if I am yet at the stage where I
can give message to inspire others...but if I had to,
it would be very simple-”Don’t work cause you are
asked to..work simply because you love what you
are doing.”
Very rarely does one come across an initiative that
brings together technology and social service and
Tech for Seva is one of those few. We were lucky
enough to serve as volunteers for such a noble
cause. Little did we realize that it would prove to
be an enriching journey in itself.
This journey started from the weekend meetings
that were attended by people of age groups . But
everybody contributed with equal energy and enthusiasm. Due to this we never really felt burdened
by the work given to us. Just in a matter of few
days everybody knew each other on first name basis. This was a pleasant change from what we normally observe in our college life and even though
it was a really small thing it provided a personal
touch to our interactions. The student competition showcased a variety of innovative ideas for
bringing about development in the fields of education, livelihood and health. During the conference we were lucky enough to get an opportunity
to interact with eminent scientists and CEOs and
know about their social service initiatives. It was
both interesting and inspirational to listen to their
views about using technology for social service.
Despite of their heroic acts these people are amazingly down to earth and can effortlessly strike a
chord with the youth. The conference also brought
into lime light the unsung heroes who are working
at grass root level in order to improve life for the
less fortunate. Though these were people from all
walks of life, they had a common objective. This
objective and the hard work of the organizers and
volunteers was the driving force behind the immense success of this conference.

In Conversation with Indo Gypsies
Shreeja Nandy
Kalyani Gadgil
Indogypsies is a folk/fusion/world music band. They seamlessly blend filk music with
a myraid of genses ranging from New age, Western, Indian classical etc.
How did you all come together
to form the Band? Did you
know each other beforehand?
Nayan - I always had an idea
about forming a band based on
fusion music. (Not the usual
ones trending).It took me four
years to find everyone and I was
in my final year of Engineering.
I met Durgesh in our college
fest and started jamming with
another friend (our ex-bassist).
We formed an instrumental
band and started performing.
After a few concerts we thought
of taking it to the next level.
Then we found Saurabh (lead
vocalist).
(Durgesh - Saurabh was busy in
Engineering so he said no. Nayan
pitches in... Everyone laughs)
S (jokingly) - actually in 11th
and 12th we used to participate
in Ganpati festivals etc. Durgesh
was in the same locality as me so
we were familiar with each other.
During my interview round in
final year I decided to pursue
my passion and not do a regular
job. I called up Nayan and asked
for an update. He said they were
a 3piece band and that they
needed a vocalist. I said okay
great! (Grins)
(Private joke between Saurabh
and Durgesh)
N - Then we found percussion.
Initially IG was an 8piece band.
It was difficult for the managers
as well as the organizers. No
one was easily ready to give
us an opportunity for a show.
(We jokingly - esp. if it’s a Girls
college...)We decided to cut
down the number, some left due
to personal reasons. We found
Vinayak - Tabla and Aditya –
base. We found Amit - drummer
through Channel V auditions. I
still remember the date 12 Dec
2013.
To Amit - Please describe your
experience so far?
(You guys know I am a DJ) I was
playing in a club and Mahant(ex
-bassist) called me out of the blue.
We were classmates in school. I
couldn’t recognise him at first!
He asked me to help out with the
drums in the band. He agreed
to send in a few of their songs
and asked me whether I would
practice on them? (Laughs) I
heard the song and was amused.
It wasn’t rock or Bollywood.
The output was brilliant, I was
curious about where they had
recorded it. I heard it only twice
(guiltily... even they don’t know it)
and i joined them for jamming
session. (Everyone.... yes it was
visible in the jam saurav - we
didnt say anything because you
were there for the first time...peals
of laughter from everyone)
They were accommodating w.r.t
to my style and we competed in
a competition. After a few initial
hiccoughs I was part of the band
fulltime.
And you have never regretted
making the choice...
No never.
N - We won the competition.
S - Then we had a perfect lineup. The problem that usually
D - The best thing is everyone
stays nearby.
S- We jam every day , we are
able to sit together and work on
the lyrics....
You mentioned that you walked
out of an interview. That need a
lot of courage - to follow what
you want! ( To Saurav)
Everyone has priorities in life
and you have to decide what
they are. ‘Settling down’ is an
abstract term. For me the first
priority is happiness. And that
comes from doing what you
love and not money and other
materialistic things. (We all are
doing what we love; I guess that
is why we are happy right now.
(Smiles)...) Of course there are
hurdles, Indian music Industry
is growing but still at the end
of the day we realise we are into
music even after going home
from the jamming session.
That is brilliant! Passion is
really important esp. since you
are creating something out of
nothing. That needs dedication.
How intensive is the work? The
bonding and the amount of
time that you have to invest.....
Aditya-(glances at his band mates)
It is all about how you feel.
For me we are as a whole and
not individuals. When we are
jamming we are together. That
is the link. We had different
priorities but for all of us our
first priority is the Band (and
that makes everything fall into
place.)
S - We realised there are too
many things to do. Not just
making
music.
Backstage
settings, management (our
manage Naem is a big help to us)
our sound guy Sangeet(you have
already heard his name so much!).
N - There are a lot many people
behind us. Not just six of us. You
can even say the audience is also
a part of this process.
So how is the Indian music
scene right now? As you said
it is growing esp. Indo fusion.
It is no more rock and death
metal.
Yes it is growing. There are lot of
artists now. For instance Raghu
dixit, Indian Ocean, Euphoria
etc. Indian Ocean has been
playing since the 90’. At that
time there was no platform,
they had to struggle a lot. Now
there are multiple platforms
like Channel V, radio channels.
On Radio city 91.1fm there is
a show for independent bands Freedom band.
D - Also the number of music
fests like NH-7 weekender is
giving a boost to it.
S - The social media is the
ultimate tool. You can collaborate
with other musicians. You can
buy music online. Put up own
songs.....
N - It is still a long way
for
Independent
singing.
Bollywood!
(Yes ...biggest competition)
KSHITIJ 2014
crops up is that one has to give
one’s 100 per cent to this. No
other occupations. We are lucky
to have found all.
61
62
KSHITIJ 2014
N - But things are changing.
D- Mind sets are changing. We
hope for the best
Definitely, you are doing a great
job might we add. You are in a
city right next to Bollywood,
what kind of problems do you
usually face?
N - The first and biggest problem
is finding support.
When I passed out of
Engineering, my parents said
that I should find a job, music
will keep happening. So i found
one but it required me to travel
here and there. My dad agreed
that I should concentrate on
music. Another challenge is as
I said before Bollywood. People
want to hear known songs
instead of original ones of an
independent band. So one needs
to be confident about one’s own
creation and it also has to be
fresh.
Apart from music what are your
other interests?
Am - only music.
N - I like theatre acting and i do
poem recitation etc.
S- I like to trek and travel. I
am a loner actually (jokingly
adds- don’t know how I got into
this profession. N - And he has a
telescope of his own, D - theories)
Yes i have many theories. Lot of
things actually but music is the
predominant one.
Please tell us at least one of
them?
(Peals of laughter...)
D - I’m into production (music)
etc. mostly music..... ( other
mates pitch in comedy....
dialogue mimicry of Akshay
Kumar movies)
Who is your favourite movie
character?
(Smiles). I am a big fan of Nana
Patekar... (Applause from band
mates)
Kis line me aa gaya hoon?
(Standard dialogue when things
are going bad)
Vinayak - For me of course
music comes first, apart from
that cricket and reading.
You are a Tabla player in a band
with drums base guitar etc. The
entire rock scene is set. How do
you look at this ensemble?
Initially I didn’t know about
fusion bands. I used to listen
to the genre but. When Saurav
approached me with a proposal
to join band I thought about it.
I wanted to do something on my
own, create music. The creative
part is fun.
S - In all of us Vinayak is the
most learned in music
V - I started learning the tabla
when i was in 2nd standard
How long is that! You come
from a classical background.
There is a culture shift. In
classical you have to follow
your kayda.....
S- He has forced us to change
so many of our songs. He told us
this is not the kayda.
So you bring discipline to the
group. (To Vinayak)
What about you Aditya?
Music …short and sweet
Did you start on the lead or
base?
Adi - I started on acoustic guitar
6-7 years back. I found a friend
in college and formed a band.
It failed and i got demotivated.
I was not able to find a genre
I like. Suddenly these people
(Band mates) come in the
picture. Mahant and I used to
learn together. He was leaving
so.... I liked the music and
wanted to be a part of it but I
was a guitarist and not base
player. So I was in a dilemma
of whether I should join the
band. I had questions like “will
I be able to play?” and would it
be upto the mark because these
people have brilliant quality. It
was a huge responsibility. So
I initially refused because of
lack of preparation. There was a
temporary bassist but soon it was
vacant and i thought again and
picked up base. They pushed me
and encouraged. I learnt more
from the jam than actually going
to someone else. He introduced
to my sir. Sir taught me a lot
of techniques. So yes now it is
music although I am a sound
engineer. I like photography,
I like adventure, I like a lot of
things but main focus is music.
(D - #Iphone!)
Where do you see yourself in
two years from now?
S - We see ourselves a long way
further. We are already in process
of recording our music video
which is soon to be released
on MTV and other channel
probably. We are also making
a music album and having a
nationwide tour by the end of
this year. There are other plans
in the channel and our manager
Naem is looking out for many
of our shows. We are hopeful to
perform internationally in some
time.
Best of luck for your future
journey...

As I take a step towards home
I turn back one more me
And as the meframe comes to a freeze
Once again I drown into those memories
Every me I sit back and recall
Over and over ll I’ve remembered it all
All those moments I’ve spent with you
Even those that made me part from you two
That first day when I saw you
Our first task together- the face pain ng
Playing mom-in-law, the songs you’d sing
Your smile contagious as anything
The applause a er your first dance
The first nickname you gave
Crazy puppet eyes, gaming all night
Mu ering in sleep and every pe y fight
The two of you I so adore
Without you, life’s not as good anymore
I spend my days wishing you’d be back
Trying to make sense of life, but I’ve lost track
You know not of the reasons old and new
And what it all had come down to
Over our friendship that I never thought I’d lose
It’s your be erment that I had to choose
Because all through our happy mes together
And through these changing weathers
Everyday that I’ve ptoed to get a glance of you
two
I’ve said to myself that I’ll never be far from you
I feel shameful for I’ve made you cry
I take the blame and a million sighs
Dying for a chance to explain to you
How incomplete a musketeer is without the other
two
I hope me heals our broken es
I pray, for all I need is that most valuable “hello”
And I know memories shall clear those hazy skies
Because we never never meant goodbyes
No ma er how endless it seems
I’ll be right here, wai ng
I hope this effort is worth to tell you cartoons
That I’m missing you, please come back soon

Teacher Oh! Teacher
You are life’s important feature

Whenever my name will shine

A Song Of Life
Somewhere Behind the Hills
In the rapture of life and of living,
I li up my head and rejoice,
And I thank the great Giver for giving
The soul of my gladness a voice.
In the glow of the glorious weather,
In the sweet-scented, sensuous air,
My burdens seem light as a feather
They are nothing to bear.
Living away from home is
never easy..
I li up my eyes to Apollo,
The god of the beau ful days,
And my spirit soars off like a swallow,
And is lost in the light of its rays.
Are tou troubled and sad? I beseech you
Come out of the shadows of strife
Come out in the sun while I teach you
The secret of life.
Come out of the world – come above it
Up over its crosses and graves,
Though the green earth is fair and I love it,
We must love it as masters, not slaves.
Come up where the dust never rises
But only the perfume of flowers
And your life shall be glad with surprises
Of beau ful hours.
Come up where the rare golden wine is
Apollo dis lls in my sight,
And your life shall be happy as mine is,
And as full of delight.
They are all miles apart,
Somewhere near the seas.
A gush of wind comes to me,
With their memories.
I am living my dream,
S ll with gloom my heart fills.
When I try hard to find them ,
Somewhere behind the hills.

I look at the stars of night,
The skies unite us all.
Hope they all are safe,
Behind the unseen wall.
HAPPINESS IS
EVERYWHERE !! :)
Some mes its part of dreams ,
That comes true.
Or perphapsits just doing,
What we like to do .
Happiness comes from laughing ,
Laughing together ,
And from braght change,
In some unpleasant weather.
It’s found in the wonder of the
blue sky above,
In the magic of being with
Someone we love.
And when happiness seems ,
To be nowhere around ,
REMEMBER !!
It’s just wai ng to be a friend ! :)

In the strength and the glory of power,
In the pride and the pleasure of wealth
(For who dares dispute me my dower
Of talents and youth- me and health?) ,
I can laugh at the world and its sages
I am greater than seers who are sad,
For he is most wise in all ages
Who knows how to be glad.
Somewhere behind the hills,
Lies my home.
The hills hide me from them.
I am all alone.
As distances increase,
They come closer to me.
Somewhere above the
horizon,
Their smiles will be.

The following was one of the topics
given for creative writing in
Mood Indigo2013 - ‘Just about Write’
42
It is like God!
If you write it numerically then four and two are
related mathematically. When I have to memorize a phone number I pray that the sequence
be as magical as this. Magical because be it a
coupon number or a friend’s roll no. it can be
memorised in a jiffy! Imagine the fiasco if after agreeing to save a friend’s attendance record
one simply can’t recall his roll no. during roll
call.
Or we can say the number out loud as two and
four and then we can dance all night long to it –
Captain America for people who find it difficult
to proceed conversation beyond the general
weather.
We all know about 1942 or I should say knew –
when we studied history in school. Because all
I can recall now is that it was the middle of WW
II and that the Great Depression had ended that
year. Talking of depression there was a little ray
of hope for saas-bahu –saga bored audience in
the form of Anil Kapoor’s telefilm 24. But the
relief was some and not total (As it always happens with us and god!)And while we are at it
there are 24 hours in a day. What can be more
important than that? Another form of 42 is to be
found in paintings. Together they become the
ducks and flamingos in a pond, while separately
4 can be a sitting man (As they say God appears
in different forms.) It would have been very
convenient for me if there were 42 deities worshipped in India but that is just wishful thinking.
And as for me I start my day with 42. Sometimes
it signifies that it is 3 minutes to commencing of
lectures and I have to walk faster and on days
that feel adventurous it signifies that I have just
three minutes to do the impossible – getting up
from bed to sitting in class!
DSC prize for South Asian Literature :
Cyrus Mystry for Book “Chronicle of a Corpse Bearer”
The prize, is given to the best work or translations of a work on or about the South Asian region.
At the very edge of its many interlocking worlds, the city of Bombay
conceals a near invisible community of Parsi corpse bearers, whose job it
is to carry bodies of the deceased to the Towers of Silence. Segregated and
shunned from society, often wretchedly poor, theirs is a lot that nobody
would willingly espouse. Yet thats exactly what PhirozeElchidana, son of a
revered Parsi priest, does when he falls in love with Sepideh, the daughter
of an aging corpse bearer...
Derived from a true story, Cyrus Mistrys extraordinary new novel is a
moving account of tragic love that, at the same time, brings to vivid and
unforgettable life the degradation experienced by those who inhabit the
unforgiving margins of history.

For the women of tomorrow

Today’s Indian woman is probably the most outgoing, multi-tasking, family-oriented, active and responsible in the world. At the same time, women in India are found to have most unexpected physical, emotional and mental health issues.
For the people in our nation, especially women, last 2 decades were like a roller-coaster ride.
The changing lifestyle and food habits have started showing a strong and lasting impact on women’s
health. Our women are falling prey to ailments and disorders regardless of their cast, creed and demographic status.
What?
Here are few important health concerns:
 Menstruation:
These days, girls may have their first menstruation (menarche) at as early as even 10 years of
their age. This might be an impact of changing hormones. So is the pattern of menstruation.
Many of the girls do not menstruate ‘normally’. They may have excessive bleeding, scanty menses, painful periods, irregular menses and white discharge (Leucorrhoea).
Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most frequently seen ailments among young
women. PCOS has many signs like weight gain, unwanted hair growth, irregular periods, oily
skin and dandruff. PCOS may result in Primary Infertility.
 Hair and skin:
Pimples (Acne), under-eye dark circles, pigmentation are not less common.
For skin and hair, women tend to try various shampoos, creams, lotions and popular products.
These products have their own limited effects and side effects. Actually, the best skin and hair
treatment is based on the correct ‘nourishment’.
 Obesity:
KSHITIJ 2014
Dry hair, split ends, dandruff, lustreless hair, hairfall and premature greying of hair have become
so common that almost every girl faces them.

KSHITIJ 2014
Though there has been a lot said and done about women’s obesity of late, it remains a very important health hazard. It affects the vitality, energy levels, hormones, fertility and welcomes diseases
like Diabetes, Arthritis and high Blood pressure.
Improper food habits and lifestyle are the main causes of women’s obesity.
 Anaemia:
A study has proved that over 50% Indian women have less haemoglobin in their blood. This is
regardless of the class. Students, politicians, educators, mothers almost all segments of society.
Hypothyroidism, fatigue, stress, very dry skin, different types of cancers-the list can go very long.
Why?
Here are some very important reasons:
 Lack of physical activity:
As soon as the girl turns 14, her physical activity reduces to minimum. Girls’ physical activity
gets cut down due to sitting long hours, no cycling-sports-dancing-walking and very minimum
household activity due to ‘studies-school-classes’.
 Junk food:
India was never so foodie when it comes to ‘buying of food’ is concerned. Last 20 years have
made girls and women get out of their homes for various reasons. Unfortunately, the available
food options are only ones, which may feed and not nourish.
Junk foods are generally very dry, contain high amounts of chemicals, salts and fats. Aerated soft
drinks, noodles, pizzas, burgers and high amounts of tea and coffee have become a part of today’s
women’s daily routine.
Here are some facts about ‘junk’ food:
‘Big food brands hide harmful effects’: Centre for Science and Environment
Junk foods contain very high levels of trans-fats, salts and sugar – which inevitably lead to severe ill health and diseases like obesity and diabetes.
Here are some examples:
Noodles: Single pack contains 3.5g of salt; daily recommended intake is 6g. Negligible fibers;
70% just carbohydrates.
Super Noodles (Masala): 0.7g trans fats/100g though company claims zero trans fats
Chips (Snack Smart): 3.7g trans fats/ 100g. Earlier sold as zero trans fats chips, but claim
knocked off later Chicken Zinger: 16.9% fats; cAloo :8.3% fats. 35% calories in veg burger
come from fats; 47% in non-veg
WHO says an adult male can have 2.6g of trans fats a day, female 2.1g and a child 2.3g
The NIN benchmark for maximum salt for one person is 6 gram, while the WHO puts it at 5
gram.
The normal 80-gram packet of Maggi noodles that many of us gobble up almost on a daily basis
has over 3.5 gram of salt – enough to take care of over 60 per cent of our daily salt intake.
It released the results of laboratory tests carried out on 16 major food brands that the young particularly like, such as noodles, fried chicken and Aloo Bhujia.
CSE’s director general Sunita Narain said that what makes junk food so unhealthy are the high
levels of salt, sugar, fats and carbohydrates in them. Our new study, which looks at the nutritional
value of these foods, is to make people aware of what these foods really contain and what they
will do to our health.
 Chemicals in daily life:
Knowingly or unknowingly we use a large number of chemicals everyday. Shampoos, tooth
pastes, creams, lotions, talcum powders, perfumes, deodorants, hair colours, soaps, mosquito
repellent coils-liquids and any more. These chemicals have effects on health. They may induce
allergies, asthma and even cancers.
Change: How?
 Walk:
Everyone can plan to walk for at least 40 minutes everyday. You don’t have go to a gym or even
‘go for a walk’. Find reasons to walk. Walk small distances regularly.
 Remain active:
Keep active at home and at the workplace. Leave the chair and walk for few minutes after every
40 minutes.
A set of 12 ‘Suryanamaskars’ everyday is highly recommended. It is easy, consumes less time
and needs no equipments.
 Eat healthy:
Try to take 3 to 4 small meals everyday. Remember, breakfast is the best meal of the day. Dinner
should be as light as possible.
Do not consume water, sweets or fruits immediately after food. Try to walk for a few minutes
after each meal.
Avoid dry food like chips, wafers, pohe, pizzas. Drink enough water.
Try to eat at least one fruit every day and a leafy vegetable.
Soak 4-5 almonds in water overnight and eat early morning with 2 walnuts, 2 dates, a few resins
and 2-3 apricots.

Basic Rules Of Our Language (what you
call- GRAMMAR)
First, don’t spell conventionally.
It’s not teens. It’s teenz.
The golden rule:
If it’s plural, replace the S with the Z.
Add how many ever ‘z’s you want if it’s the last
letter in the word. Such as boyzzzzzz, folkzzzzzz,
galzzzzzzzz etc. Similarly, if it’s a word that begins
with C, replace it with K. Kool?
Use Abbreviation (Get yourself a crash course in it).
The most important of them all is LOL - laugh out
loud. Using LOL during a chat or in a text message
indicatez ur kool. You don’t have to worry about
Upper case or Lower case because most teenz are
Case blind. lolzzzzz!
You could also use ROTFL (rolling on the floor
laughing), ROTFLWTIME (rolling on the floor with
tears in my eyes.
Boycott vowels and if there’s a double letter in the
word, use just one or replace it with a vowel that
sounds more like it. Sample: Look would become
luk. Better wud bcum btr, ok? In fact, ok itself is
considered a waste of a whole letter since O is
understood, rather silent, when teenz say the word.
So it’s just K.
purged from teen lingo. So please spelt pl still sounds
formal and hence to communicate the kool vibe,
please is spelt pliss or plees, love is spelt lou, alright
becomes awrite or aite and sorry becomes sowwie.
You can start a sentence with Awwwww... and end
with kissie wissie or huggie wuggie. You can also
end with any number of question or exclamation
marks because teens love being dramatic...awwww!
so cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not all teens use the wrong spelling because they
want to save a few letters from being used, some
of them use it to illustrate or stress the importance
of magnitude of the emotion with which the
word is said. Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!
Soooooooooooooooooo Cuuuuuuute!!!!! Huggie
Wuggie. Kissie!
Teens don’t understand nouns. They have one word
that refers to all material and abstract nouns - Thingie.
And one word to be used as adjective - bling. Watz
dat thingie u hd 2 do dis wk? Gimme ur thingie 2day.
They have two words when they have to talk about
someone - Dude or Babe. Hey luk, dat dude frm da
dance thingie v wnt 2 las wk cald. He ‘nt wt dat bling
babe NE mo. kool noooo?! lolzzzzzz!
And here are a few universal one’s which have stuck
despite the generation leap!
All official or formal sounding words have been

category of rock music, it now describes a
dramatic person who listens to those songs.)

“You don’t pick your parents; you don’t
pick your partner.”
What do you do when your favourite t.v. series has
concluded its season, and the next one isn’t due until a couple of months? – You search for a new one.
At a time when several of the extremely popular
series ( read Breaking Bad , Castle , Sherlock,
Downton Abbey etc.) are off air, it is indeed a
tall order to find a replacement. For those of you,
who love whodunits, add a generous helping of
freakiness to it and wham! You get True Detective
– the latest anthological drama based on crime.
Remember Lincoln Lawyer? Loved the laconic but
stellar Matthew McConaughey as a keeper of the
law? Then there is all the more reason to cheer!
Matthew McConaughey (Rust Cohle) shares the
star cast with Woody Harrelson( Martin Hale)
portraying a detective duo chasing a serial killer,
while each one battling with his inner demons. The
story opens with a silhouette setting fire to a field
and then it switches to present day in an innocent
room at the police headquarters. Just as the word
predictable starts to creep into your mind and you
have already imagined four steps further, there is a
turn to the plot forcing you back to square one. And
this happens every single time you start to trail off.
(Kudos to the screenplay!)Another element that
sets it apart from most of the crime thrillers is the
degree of restraint in the narration. It is slow paced
and reveals one aspect at a time, which makes you
literally cry out loud! At the end of first episode we
still don’t know how they operate, what is the plan
of action, why Martin is unhappy in his marital
relationship. Take another instance, at the very
beginning Rust turns up drunk at Martin’s house.
The how and why are revealed towards the end of
the episode, which brings us to another aspect i.e.
multiple timelines. There is a present day, the past
where all the investigation took place and in the
past two parallel timelines. (No I’m not trying to
scare you off this show!)
The most important scene in a whodunit is the
crime scene and this one doesn’t disappoint. A ritualistic murder of a prostitute in the middle of a field
may not sound fantastic but wait till you see it. A
sense of foreboding and eeriness prevails throughout; landscapes feel barren even though they are
lush green .Sometimes their patrol car is the only
one on the road against the backdrop of factories.
As if it is a line separating the good within and
evil without. And not to forget the hypnotic note in
which Rust delivers his realistic view of life, man
and motive. While he doesn’t miss an opportunity
to exert his view, Martin the god –fearing- guynext-door tries every to avoid it. The poker face
of the former and the flinching of the later bring a
smile to your face if not laughter. Surprisingly both
the characters feel real , in light of our expectation
of the actors to play just the opposite role.
So settle in for an hour of mismatched duo, powerful story and delivery and unconventional cinematography every Sunday at 9PM on HBO defined.

PURUSHOTTAM AND FIRODIYA
atre based play competition
where the theatre basics are
tested. Skills such as script writing and acting are the most important parts of the competition.
Along with the appropriate presentation of the script, apt technical support is also considered
as a part of judgement. Theatre
disciplines and rules are mandatory to be followed and each
team given a time of 60min to
present themselves. No outside
professional help is encouraged
which make the students use
their art in the most impressive
forms.
In 2013, Cummins College of
Engineering for Women presented a play “RIHA” in the purushottam competition. It was written
by Manjiri Godbole(B.E Computer) and directed by Shreya
Apte(B.E Instrumentation). The
play revolved around a widow
(Nafisa Sheikh) whose husband
was abducted and never returned back. It parallely depicts
another woman (Zara Qureshi)
whose brother was also missing.
Nafisa tries to find her husband
and is ready to go to the end of
the world to find him. Whereas
Zara has already given a closure
to her as well as her family by
believing her brother to be buried in an Unmarked Grave. The
story begins with Nafisa believing that her husband is buried in
the same grave where Zara and
her family think her brother is
buried. It is a story of letting go
of your past and sccepting the
present for a better future.
The prizes won for “RIHA ”
are:
Best Writing : Consolation:
Manjiri Godbole (B.E. Computer)

Firodiya Karandak on the other
hand is as good as a short Film
making experience which not
only includes the theatre basics
but also many more technical
and art events to help the story
move around. A live band, a
group of dancers, a big and impressive set and various light effects define Firodiya. Firodiya is
a stage where you can present all
the artforms you ever knew and
which deserve a recognition.
In 2013, Cummins College of
Engineering for Women presented a play “Aur Koi Aasama
Hoga” in the firodiya competition. It was written by Manjiri
Godbole(B.E Computer) and directed by Nupur Lele(B.E Computer). The play revolved around

ed with both of them to believe
in all the things around them
and trusting that the world was
definitely a good place to live.

which they would get if they

a chocolate manufacturing company. The elder of the two gets
caught up in human trafficking
while searching for the key to
her dreams and in a moment all
her dreams are shattered. The
younger of the two is able to locate her missing elder sister only
to return back alone. It is a play
depicts relation between two sisters and their love for each other.
