IME Party 2012


Life at IITK can't get better than this. After the high octane freshers night by seniors, now it was our turn to script another memorable night. We, the new entrants of IITK, had to organize a party for entire IITK IME department (MBA, M.Tech, PhD)- students, professors and their family. The celebration was much eagerly awaited and anticipated after the unique experince of fresher's party.



After days of discussions and plannings, the D'day finally came. The theme for the party was traditional. The event started at 8 pm by the welcome ceremony of all the distinguished professors and their families.  The event, which was hosted by Praveen and Nidhi, had a lot of fun moments. Professors were invited to the stage one-by-one and they were given certain fun tasks, which they carried out with lots of enthusiasm. Their performance on the stage showed us a completely different side of our professors! Anoop sir's bhangra dance, Devlina madam's bengali song, Rachrella sir's prank and Kripashankar sir's speech in sankrit were the attarctions,to name a few, that entertained the whole crowd. It was certainly a splendid experience. After the performances, momentos were given by the 1st Year students to all the professors.


Adding to the fun were superb performances of Abhishek Pradhan's mimicry of various personalities, Manoj Jhawar's singing and guitar performances and sensational guitar play by M Tech students. The IME party hosted a great platform for all the final year students, 1st year students and professors to get well-versed with each other and get a feel of IITK life.

And now it was time for the much awaited event of the day- DJ! As always, this time too everyone was sensational on the DJ floor, dancing to the tunes of foot tapping music. The dancing floor saw some of the best dancing skills by students.


This party just marked the beginning of the 2 wonderful years that we are going to spend here! It was one of the best parties that we experienced so far, and credit must be given to Ravi Kiran Bhupati and Ankita Sahare- the organizers of the event- for making this an unforgettable experience.
