Kotak Life Insurance's Atharva came to an end on 5th December and there were certain pressing assignments to be done that postponed my blogging services...However, I hope I would regain the spirit and would post regularly..Ms.Yuktha Mukhi was the guest of honor on the third and final day of the event, which had a Mr. and Mrs. Personality contest and she was judging it.. A very mild and humble person she is , she was her own self and was a treat to watch...Yeah, she did interact with a few people...but I couldnt get a chance to take a snap with her...my only chance(till now atleast) to be with a famous person had thus gone waste...The day before ie 4th December was a great day...we were witness to one of the most interesting and unique quizzes that ever happened in India- "Quiz on the Beach"....the quiz was anchored by PickBrain Balasubramaniam(yes the same guy who writes Cross words in ET)...and was attended by both College students and Corporate participants...the quiz was an amazing treat to watch...Some 100 teams participated in the prelims, from which about 6 teams were chosen for the final...there were in total 4 corporate teams and 2 student teams...one of it was a TAPMI team in the final...The quiz started to a blazing reception, with one of the team having won the prelims with a single member only...The other member(who is from Chennai) was delayed because of a Bomb Hoax in the train he was travelling....But then the team- Quizlab from Chennai was amazing....also were the team Eternal Sunshine...a team of two- one from Sify and the other from Sun Microsystems, they were absolutely brilliant...The ES were leading till the last round, but the gap was dangerously close towards the last question...the round being the buzzer round, the ES team took a calculated tactical move and denied any other teams points and forced a tie-breaker...but the tie breaker too seemed to run into trouble when the first round was evened and the quiz master was forced to go for second round in the Tie-breaker...overall a wonderfull intelligent quizzing by the team and at the end, the team from Chennai- Quizlab won the event...Thrilling, nail bitting final....TAPMI's team came fifth...(Bacha's in the midst of Grandpas)...one consolation, we werent last...there were one more team that made it to the final and came last....

The topping of Atharva- Young Business Leader, was won by an XLRIan...This year too...ofcourse the last year's winner was also from XLRI....great work XLrs...keep it up...
