Onam Celebrations at ISB

We had Onam Celebrations today at ISB. To kick-start this, our captain Nidhin sent us an invitation email to participate in the celebrations. This was done a few days back to set the mood. Then we met up yesterday to do the flower arrangement. This task went on for about 4 hrs. The girls did a great job in making the whole design of the floral arrangement.

Today afternoon we had the Onam Sadhya - traditional kerala food rich with the taste of coconut. And then banana chips.



I still remember the Onam Celebration that Kairali - the mallu club, used to conduct in BITS. It was just awesome. As part of Onam, we used to organize the traditional Mallu Dinner on campus. Dinner coupons were sold to students and everytime we conducted the dinner, we ran out of coupons. The whole thing was so much in demand. Kairali members exhibited so much enthu that they used to land up right from the afternoon in the dining hall to help the cook in cutting vegetables, making the floral arrangement and also moving the huge marble tables and chairs to make a different set-up. I can definitely say that most guys on campus attended the Kairali dinner to see the mallu girls dressed in nice silk sarees or traditional mallu sarees. Food was served by the club members to the student body. It was just too good. It was an awesome event and I can never forget the fun we had when we did this about 7 times during my 4 yrs in Pilani.
