    NIRMATATVA

     

    Nirmatatva is an exciting platform launched in Perspective Richter 10, 2016 wherein
    speakers from multiple domains such as business, politics, entrepreneurship, athletics,
    motivation, psychology etc share their journey and innovative ideas. This is a platform for
    contemporary speakers where insightful sessions not only impart learning but also create
    enriched experience for students.
    Nirmatatva, 2018 has a theme ‘Ladder To Success’ and features:
    1. Ms. Bhakti Sharma : Sarpanch, Barkhedi Abdulla Village
    2. Sanjay Raval : Motivational Speaker & Author
    3. Gauri Sawant : Transgender Social Activist
    Mr. Atul Chaturvedi - CEO, Adani Wilmar Ltd. our fourth speaker could not come due
    to his ill health.
    Mr. Sanjay Raval is one of the most prominent Gujarati speakers. He has delivered various
    sessions on Personality Development and Fearless Life stirring people’s emotions and
    motivating them.
    At Nirmatatva, the main theme of his speech was “What is life”. Through his speech, he
    motivated the audience with his wise words and focused on the fact that it is important to
    concentrate on the process rather than on the final result. He said, “Accept everything that
    comes your way”. He criticized the education system of India, which demands respect for
    the top performers and looks down upon the poor performers. Thus, the need of the
    country is balance. He also questioned the upbringing and the hypocrisy that we live with.
    He stressed on the importance of respecting our parents, teachers because he believes that
    they are the ones who will be responsible for bringing a change in society and individuals.
    He concluded his speech by quoting, “Whatever you do in your life, give your best”.
    The second speaker at Nirmatatva was Ms. Bhakti Sharma, who is a Sarpanch of
    Barkhedi Abdulla Village near Bhopal. Not only that, she also features in the list of top 100
    most influential women in India.
    In her address to the audience, Ms. Bhakti pointed out the fact that the youth nowadays
    does not want to come out of their comfort zones. She compared success with devotion and

    meditation and said that the first step towards success is to accept criticism and
    demoralization with open heart. She said that for the country to progress, it is important
    that the youth steps out of the perception that politics is a “dirty game”. She urged the
    students to take a pause and understand the state of rural India and come up with ideas
    that could change the way people live in villages.
    Giving the example of the enormous achievements of her village, she pointed out to the
    students that they should join politics, become the well -educated political force, and that
    would turn India into a superpower.

    The third speaker was Shri Gauri Sawant. One of the most dynamite speakers at
    Nirmatatva, who enchanted the audience with her buoyant confidence and inspiring stories
    was Shri Gauri Sawant, a Social Activist working for the Transgender Community of India.
    She began her speech at Nirmatatva by talking about gender equality and women
    empowerment and raised a question as to why we need to think about such issues. She
    spoke about Indian mythology which recognized and respected the various transgender
    persons, and gave an example of Shikhandi, the first transgender to become a King in an era
    where women were not accepted as rulers. Shri Gauri Sawant gave some glimpses about
    her journey and mentioned that transgender persons have only begun to be recognized
    since the year 2014, after the Rights of Transgender Persons Bill was passed. Only after this
    bill, it has become mandatory for every organization and institution to add a category for
    them. She also threw light on her journey of raising an orphan, which was her first
    experience of raising a child being a transgender.
    Shri Gauri Sawant is credited for founding an organization, ‘Aaji Cha Ghar’, which provides
    a home to many abandoned girls and senior transgender persons.

     

    AAVARTAN

     

    This was the cultural night organized under Perspective Richter 10. We had “Abid Khan
    and Group” for folk music. They are the Langa Singers. Langa is a hereditary community in
    Rajasthan that makes its living by doing what they are best at- music. What seemed to be a
    dying art is now becoming internationally renowned, thanks to Abid Khan and Group, who
    perform at both national as well as international events and take Rajasthani folk music to
    new heights with every performance Throughout their one hour of performance, this group
    connected with each and every person sitting in the auditorium and gave them goose
    bumps. Combining the richness of folk music with modern day songs, Abid Khan and group
    gave the spectators an evening to remember. They also danced while singing and whole
    crowd dance on their beats and rhythm.
    But there is more to the scintillating performance that this group gave. In today’s age, when
    our rich Indian culture is dying, this group of young men is trying to revive the art of their
    community. Not only that, they are even taking it at a global level and making their art famous.
    Coming from small towns, with extremely low levels of literacy, no financial backing and a
    history of harassment, Abid Khan and group is changing the face of their community. From not
    being able to even see the king of their province, they are now entertaining them and sitting with
    them to eat with respect.
    The journey was not easy. From selling their art for almost free, their fate changed when they
    stood second in Sony Television’s show, ‘Entertainment Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega’. From then,
    there has been no looking back for this talented group. This might not have been possible
    without the assistance of a group of people who are encouraging and supporting local talent to
    give them recognition and the respect of being artists. Not only the local talent is being
    supported, but efforts are being made to improve their lives both educationally as well as
    financially. This very local talent, no matter how small or big, is what differentiates Indian
    culture from the rest of the world, making it more vibrant and rich.

     

    LAUGHTER RIOT

    This was a comedy show organized under Perspective Richter 10. W invited “Rahul
    Subramanian” as comedy star. They say that comedy is the toughest form of acting, making
    people laugh is not a very easy task. But an engineer can do anything in life and MBA grills
    you until it completely grooms you. Only a guy who has been through both of these phases
    in life can be expected to do a Full time job as a Brand Manager and be a Stand-up
    comedian at the same time.
    Rahul Subramanian is a Stand-up Comedian who has made a name for himself through his
    YouTube channel rich with ROFL comedy and piercing satires. The auditorium echoed with
    laughter as he tickled one and all with his simple but meticulous delivery of humor with
    pinches of satire and rawness to make things interesting and drove people into fits of
    laughter. Ranging from subtle satire at the real lives of MBAs and Engineers, to fictional
    proclivities of Old time scientists, their perks and disadvantages and the pros and cons of
    being a sportsperson, he kept the audience engaged, engrossed and entertained. Day 1 of
    PR10 couldn't have ended on a higher note.

     

    Kartab was an event that provided a platform to the acrobats for demonstrating their
    immense abilities gained over the years of persistence.
    Acrobats were invited for Malkhamb presentation.
    They started with the rope tricks. From age 12 to young mature acrobats, each one of them
    wooed the audience with their tricks.
    They next carried on with the pole tricks and demonstrated breathtaking stunts - be it solo
    or group.
    The event wrapped up with the final group act of the acrobats.

    leaving everyone in awe. Whole auditorium was filled with people and there were regular
    applauds from the audience.
