Day 3 was themed ‘Traditional Day’, where the students showed off their rich and vibrant heritage. From dhoti’s and saree’s to sherwani’s and lungis, we saw it all.
A new addition to the cultural event ‘A Blind Food Tasting’ challenge was also held this year, where the inner masterchef of the participants was put to test. There were multiple rounds which eventually helped them sharpen their palates and each round had a winner.
