The four-day Chaos-2013, annual cultural festival organised by the two-year Post-Graduate Programme (PGP) students of the Indian Institute of Management-Ahmedabad (IIMA), is all set to commence on December 26.

 

Started in 1996, Chaos now witnesses a footfall of over 50,000 each year. The event sees participation from school and university students from over 80 institutes across the country and is India’s largest business school cultural festival, an IIM-A spokesman said on Tuesday.

 

This year’s Chaos is centred on the theme of “Tribute to Indian Cinema”, in celebration of 100 years of Indian Cinema. It will host a number of performances.

 

Alongside the musical events, Femina Miss India 2014 is set to bring its “Walk to Fame” concept to the city for the first time that will see local talent get an opportunity at India’s prestigious pageant.

 

A special screening of the movie “Goonga Pehelwan”, revolving around the story of  wrestler Virender Singh and his journey from the by-lanes of a village in Haryana to becoming India’s most successful deaf athlete, will also be held exclusively as part of Chaos.

 

The cultural festival will see the famed nationwide inter-IIT and IIM quiz competition Nihilanth come to the IIM-A. The quiz competition involves over 160 participants from across 16 IITs and all 13 IIMs battle it out across 7 sets of quizzes to be crowned the winner.

 

For the first time, Chaos will be live-streaming its flagship events on the Internet, available on the Chaos homepage http://www.iima-chaos.com/.

 

Tickets for all the days of Chaos 2013 are available through the online ticketing portal BookMyShow or alternatively at the ticket counters set up at the IIM-Ahmedabad campus and other offline vendors in the city.
