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.
