Pandora’s Box was a mix of events (shipwreck, anti-shipwreck, Defend the Product and Attack the Product), requiring the students to display their spontaneity and sense of humour. The team consisting of Aishwarya Giridharan, Vaishinavee R, and Rohan S won the competition.

Ther was an off-stage event titled “Bulls and Bears”, a simulation of stock market where the partipants had to create and manage a portfolio of investments over a period of 5 days. Rajath came out on top by maintaining the highest wealth.
