Flip-Flopping -> The Semester has begun!

PADMA MAM'S CONCERT :
The board in room-2219 was decorated by our usual artists. Sriram on the violin and Kaushik on Mirdhangam. They had vigorous practice sessions before and the one term they follwed till the break of the concert was - not to let out the songs list to anyone :) Well... Our favorite 'gamganapathe' was the starter, followed by a tribute to the Guru and then Naatai varanam. The main piece of the concert was 'Venkata Ramana' in ragam Lathangi. A pacifying piece in karna ranjini came after the main. Meanwhile, Rag's well wisher- LKM, handed over a small gift to Mam on behalf of Rag. Then the concert was drawn to a conclusion with a thillana in brindhavani and 'Mangalam'.

FRESHER'S CONCERT:
Here comes the most awaited and anticipated "Fresher's":
The following pic has 'em all:
Boys(left-->right): Vamshidar, Shravan, pratik, Hardik, Lohit
And the one left who adds light to the smiles is Roopa.

Their performance really rocked! They were able to manage properly and acted smart for even the slightest Thalam errs. Also, the practice sessions from 5-7pm went on well. Kudos to our Sec (Sriram) and obviously joint sec (VSP) cannot be missed! with respect to Hindustani, Anil Roy Sir helped his best and taught few songs. Hey, this time Srividya(a vainica in the club) gave vocal concert. So she is into the club as a vocalist too :)
Then came the surprise .. wonderful cake exclusively baked for freshers by soumi :) Had fun.. clicked snaps with Manojh's ..oops!...rag's digicam. I am taking liberty here :D
After all the tete-a-tete got over, there was a small chat with the freshers:

(Q refers to Questions)

Q: Wat do u feel after giving a CONCERT?

Freshers: We feel great, really great from within.

Q: Fine, any remarkable change in you??... specifically during the practise sessions?

Freshers: YES.

"I have learnt how to be punctual (Rajiv comes in the picture..hehe)

"I was Zuk wen i came in, but now a drastic change in me,Thanks :)"

Q: Hindustani-ites .. how do u think we can improvise on ur concerts ? As in.. wat kinda concerts cld we include?

Freshers: Hey.. gr8 .. There is a concert called "jugalbandhi" were all the instruments get chance invdividually. This will include vocalists too. And the one part is these concerts will be really crowd pulling ones :)

Okay.. thats nice, isnt it ? Thanks to one of the articles to give me this idea of posting a "chat convo" :D

Hooo Hooo.. guess wat? BOSM had started and our mech(divya) is on the run! Super shots and claps and songs and ... blah in the basky court sterday night, making it very much obvious that BITS headed away the game :) Well.. NR practices are also happening in full swing. Shall update once the next event gets over :)
