INSPIRATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY

The beautiful creation of the God! The Angel on the earth makes our life a wonderful

experience all together. Imagining life without a woman is quite hard – hitting. This Angel

shakes the cradle with one hand and the earth with the other hand. The fact that all the great

people of the world from the womb of a woman and it is a woman from whom those great

people have taken their initial teachings. And that is the reason we have always emphasized

upon giving the due respect to women in their life. And that is why women’s day is celebrated

with so much zeal and it has spread through the world.

To teach people the various roles played by women in different spheres of life in various

organizations and educational institutions and various national land international platforms,

Women’s Day speeches are delivered. Celebrating Women’s Day is a way of feeling gratitude

to the each and every woman in one’s life, be it in the professional or the personal life.

International Women’s Day is observed every year on 8th of March and it is observed around

It is glad to know that Women’s Day is celebrated to instill respect and care for women

in the minds of young brains since their childhood itself. It also forms an essential part of the

curriculum in order to spread the knowledge and awareness of women empowerment, their

position in the society and their achievement. Like every year we had organized the event on

INTER DEPARMENT FEST

COLOSSEUM 2019

In India, a cultural fest, cultfest, culfest or college fest is an annual cultural event at a college,

or a university organised by the college students.

The thing is whenever we hear the word 'fest', we immerse ourselves in the thoughts of alluring

colourful lights, unstoppable music, dance performances, beautiful songs, fashion shows and

even savouring foods. We bend our hunches towards competitions, huge crowds, and cultural

diversities which indeed gift us with a massive package of memories. Knowing people,

understanding them, learning to work with them and most importantly working as a team,

something reminiscent to a ‘well-oiled machine’ or a ‘well developed software’, is the crux of

every fest. Interaction with different ideological personalities adds a new spice to our

experience. It is beautiful and vibrant in every way possible and I am proud to say that

colosseum 2019 was one such event.

This event was a result of immense hard work and the combined that was put in by the

principal, the HOD’s, the professors and the whole of student body and the blessings of our

Chairman Dr. K . R. Paramahamsa , Vice Chairperson Mrs. Geetha Paramahamsa, Vice-

President Ms. Monica Kalluri and Executive Vice-President Mr. Rahul Kalluri AMC-CITY

GROUP and by the grace of God .

The event started at 09:30 with our beloved and respected principal Dr. A. G. Nataraj

welcoming the chief guest and the guest of honour , Mr. Manjunath V.R a well-known

personality of the Kannada cinema the actor , director cum producer of the movie ‘Star

Kannadiga’ and the lead actress the beautiful Ms. Shalini Bhatt and the guest Mr. Aryan ,

Ms. Monica Zavier, Mr. Mohammad Sahil some of the leading names in fashion industry and

the first two being Alumni of our prestigious institution, who were to be the judge of Mr & Ms.

AMC as well as the fashion show. We Indians are nothing without our culture and our beliefs

and we are proud of it, hence no event can truly begin without invoking the name of God.

Hence the first event was invoking the name Lord Ganesha by lighting the lamp. Which was

carried out by our principle, our Dean of Academic Dr. A. K Murthy, all the HOD’s of

different department , and our Cultural Head Dr. Nirmala.S .The next order of events consisted

of a set of on stage group singing, group dancing, solo singing, solo dancing, fashion show and

off stage events which considered of writing event, gaming events, painting evets as well as a

few sports events being football, cricket, kabaddi, table tennis, chess and Ludo . The highlight

of the day being ‘Mr & Ms. Fresher’ also called ‘Mr & Ms. AMC’ followed by the Prize

Distribution Ceremony.The winners and the runners up were rewarded but the beautiful thing

is there were no losers, for all of us were rewarded with the memories of this beautiful event

which will last forever. The events of the day were concluded by all of us singing ‘The

National anthem’, as a single body, a single soul and as a one big family not perfect but

imperfectly perfect known to the world as “AMC INSTITUTIONS”.

Ethnic Day 2019 - A colourful and vibrant celebration

World Ethnic Day is an opportunity to celebrate the cultures of different countries together on

a single day.

In the digital world, "World is One" yet we all carry different identities represented by what

we wear, eat, believe and celebrate. Let's come together and celebrate our diversity as "One

World". World Ethnic Day is a day of fun, dance, music, food and party in a traditional way.

"World Ethnic Day is a concept that came out of the passion and vision of craftsvilla.com, India

s largest online marketplace for ethnic products. It is a way to celebrate unique cultures of the

world on a single day in unison" explained Craftsvilla co-founder Monica Gupta.

Students came in ethnic costumes. Girls were dressed in Ghaghara, Punjabi dress and

traditional Sarees and the boys wore kurtas, dhotis and even jewelled turbans, like those worn

by kings in ancient times. This added to the grandeur of the costume parade.

The main message of the celebration was to respect the culture & tradition of our country.
