NAGPUR TOI NEWS: College festivals are usually an opportunity to have fun and celebrate best moments of student life. However, at Crescendo, it is also about reliving some of these moments and evoking a feeling of homecoming for the ex-students and those who no longer stay in the city.
Crescendo, the four-day intercollegiate festival being held on Tirpude Campus, witnessed a lot of old faces who had come to enjoy a little 'college air' on day two. "I and Crescendo go back a long way. I used to come here as a student. And now when I am working, I have come back with a group to participate in the dance event," said Prateek Tiwari, an event manager.
According to Prateek, one of the best things about Crescendo is that the organizing college doesn't take part in the various competitions. "Hence, there is no scope for favouritism and the festival gives others a platform to showcase their talents," added Prateek.
Shreyas Gawande, who is studying in Pune, has come to Nagpur especially for Crescendo. "There are big festivals there too, but Crescendo is close to my heart because it has all the Nagpuri flavour," he said.
As the evening set in, the crowd swelled to enjoy the band and dance events. "We are participating for the first time in Crescendo, but we have heard quite a bit about it from our seniors. Till now, the festival has lived up to our expectations," said Manasi Joshi and Harshal Jain, who were participating in the dance event.
But there were a few who were not much impressed. "The organization is OK-OK and so is the crowd. But it is better than what I expected," said Rohit Bhandari, who had come for the football event.
Similarly, another student Nikita Kothari was a little disappointed with the crowd. However, most of them were seen enjoying the evening. "We enjoyed last evening's event, War of the DJ's," said Vaishali Rajput, an MBA student.
