Jan 17th-19th, 2003
We had IIMB's annual culfest Xanadu 2003 ( or X3) during 17-19th Jan 03. Until last year, it used to be known as Unmaad, a name given by our senior PGP batch (97-99), who actually had revived the culfest at IIMB after a gap of ten years. Naturally, our batch also is quite unhappy about the change of name.

Anyways, first night we had fashion show and choreography. Nirma Intitute of Management team really had good clothes (on good models obviously ). They experimented with leather skirts in their causal wear and men's wear also saw some neat collar design in summer coats. In choreography, Christ College team (as usual) was really good. That was some amazing display of synchronization. IIMB team also performed extremely well, especially on 'Mere Piya Gaye Rangoon' number. It was near perfect!

Second night was a musical night with a fusion show planned. Shankar Mahadevan, Louis Banks, Taufiq Qureshi, and Suresh Peters performed for 2 hours in total tune with each other. It was fantabulous. Especially Mahadevan's vocals.

Third and last night was the culfest customary rock-show. We had two groups: Moksha and Pentagram. Opening act was done by an upcoming bacnd Vidambana (or Vidambara?). The main act, I would say, Moksha was better than Pentagram. Anyways, it was fun.
