वंदे मातरम फेस्टिवल 18 August

After the well preparation and planning the Vande Mataram Festival was very good and everyone enjoyed being there.

There were lots of prices, lots of games and songs.

The best part of the evening was a skit "Gadar Ek Sofware Engineer ki Prem Katha".
It was basically a software version of the film "Gadar". Many plots showcasing scenarios from onsite-offshore model, developer-manager quarrel and rarely found love story within software industry were very well organized which left all the audience laughing.

I was also part of this skit, thankfully I had a very small role. But I have for sure realized that acting is very difficult. I mean you can talk lots of things in front of so many people during normal day to day life. But portraying a character exactly how it should be is tough. But we had few guys in our team who were overall confident doing such acts and hence was not a problem. I learnt from them and tried my best and could manage to say few lines as expected.


Tricky part is when you actually forget a dialogue on the stage and you can do nothing about it. And you say some thing else than what was written in script. The other person in the plot manages and synchronizes with you keeping the plot same as expected. (I don't know if i am able to explain it properly).

Overall it was good experience organizing and acting in such a skit. More than that we actually enjoyed lot during are practice session.
