Picturesque, punchy and unabashedly stylish, the five colleges that participated in Crossroad’s Inferno, the Fashion Show, definitely made an impression. Judged by Harsh Khullar and Ashmita Jaiswal, Kamla Nehru College emerged victorious in this battle of the trends with the likes of fashion societies from Maitreyi, Keshava Maha Vidyalaya, SSSGC and GNIOT providing stiff competition. The overriding trend seemed to be dark lipshades and eccentric outfits. However, Glitz,the Fashion Society of KNC stole the show with its performance on the theme ‘Savage Mind’ in shades of blue, black and grey. This event was undoubtedly a feast for the eyes.

The second day at this latest installment of Shri Ram College of Commerce annual cultural fest, Crossroads 2017, opened up with one of the most sought after events of the four-day fiesta with Raqus, the western choreography competition. In a tight sequence of dance showdowns, six participating teams from across the university came up with their maximal performances. The result of this event comes up later today.

To tickle the funny bones and stir up the comedic temperatures of the cultural fest, the Choreo Competition was followed by a Stand-Up Comedy Competition. With jokes and puns spilled over the lawn, varying in their laugh-o-meter scale, the event was a successful entertainment gig. The day also provided a platform for other talents of creativity to thrive, with the Ad-making and Short film making Competitions, and brought forward all shades of innovation and ideation!

The sine wave of the excitement at the second day at Crossroads crashed to new crests with the enthralling performance for the night by Armaan Malik.
