IIM Ahmedabad to Organize its Annual Cultural Festival 'Chaos 2008'
Theme: "Nasha"
February 1-3, 2008

There comes a time every year when the whole of Ahmedabad comes to a stand-still. The city as a whole gravitates to Vastrapur to be part of one of its biggest events of the calendar along with the Garbha celebrations. Music, dance and the arts take center

stage while the spirit of youth steals the show. And when the day gives way to night, the stars descend on campus to spellbind the audience with their wares. 40,000 foot-falls in 2007 - if the pre-event hype is anything to go by, the numbers are going to be better this year. All roads lead to IIM Ahmedabad and Chaos will reign supreme!

Chaos, the annual cultural festival of country's premier B-school, the Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad is back with a bang. This time Chaos has been woven around the theme of "Nasha" - symbolizing an exhilaration and addiction that celebrates youth and talent in a festival that cheers everybody around. From the earthy splendor of rangoli to the colourful brilliance of face painting; from the comic gesturing of Dumb Charades to the literary charm of poetry writing, Chaos NASHA comes with its staple share of cultural competitions to keep students from all round the country interested.

The festival this year has a formidable line-up of performance-packed shows to keep the audience hooked and awed. Music aficionados are in for a treat to their senses as Chaos brings the internationally acclaimed and highly respected Pt. Divyang Vakil in a live concert. Pandit Divyang Vakil's latest masterpiece Tabla Ecstasy presents all facets of modern tabla playing in an enthralling and exciting form. Entrancing its listeners, Tabla Ecstasy is performed by four senior and professional students of Pandit Divyang Vakil: Rushi Vakil, Nishant Mehta, Kaumil Shah and Sahil Patel. Tabla Ecstasy is a performing group under Rhythm Riders Music Productions.

And if that isn't enough the ever so popular KK, the pop icon, will make the crowd sway to his latest chart busters. All this is topped by music that will transcend barriers of man-made boundaries. Yes, the Pakistani Rock Band Fuzon gets to enthrall the audience at Chaos' 08 as well.

The festival is not just for those who have made a mark, but also for the young and aspiring. Chaos' 08 is the right platform for the budding rock stars / models / singers / dancers of tomorrow with events like Fashion Parade, Rock Nite, Choreos and Musicals.
