This fest of BITS Pilani aims to bring together the finest of literary flavours, creative writers, poets, story tellers and enthusiastic minds from colleges and schools across India through an exhaustive roster of 18 games and events that incorporate a variety of themes.

The games, some of which are being hosted in a hybrid (online and offline) fashion to increase participant involvement, come with a collective prize pool of rupees 1 lakh. The event aims to provide for a wide palette of games and interests served complete with a stand-up comic performance by renowned artist Anshu Mor and a talk from eminent journalist Prabhu Chawla, Editorial Director of The Indian Express, and food trucks bringing the best bites on the go.
