Arthotsav '18 Diaries: Day 2
Economica checking in with the report of Day 2!
As Day 2 dawned on us, our volunteers were preparing with great fervor, for the first event of the day, one that was unique to Arthotsav this year. Presenting to you – ‘The Rightful Heir’. The head of this event, Anuja Tilak came up with a couple of ingenious ideas to introduce the event to the participants and the audience.
This event revolved around a combination of the popular board games Monopoly and Acquire, put against the backdrop of the glory of the hit TV show Game of Thrones.
To introduce the event with flair, the volunteers all walked in holding the flags you can see in the picture. Walking in an alignment, to the tune of the theme song of the TV show, they added a lot of spice to the morning.
As the minutes went by and the playing mat got prettier with colours, the excitement among the participants rose, in anticipation of the final winner.
The day quickly progressed to the second event – The Reign of Empires, conducted by our chairperson himself, Rohit Phalke. The Reign of Empires’ event concept was taken up from last year’s fest, and then made so much more intricate and exciting this year. The main idea of war dynamics remained constant, but the new variables added a complex new twist to the game!
The final event of the day was the treasure hunt, aptly named ‘X Marks the Spot’. The event took place over an extensive area of Mahim, Dadar and Matunga (West) – the most extensive treasure event in the college, with the checkpoints spread out over this large area. The participants would get the clue to the next checkpoint only after completing a task, with each one being more hilarious than the next. Stuff like applying eyeliner to the team partner, and dancing in public was just the beginning of the list!
Lots of fun, lots of pizzazz.
