and 4th of February 2017. The corresponding expected expenditure for 3 days shows (Total of 5

days including stage setting and rehearsal) for 75 members team. Dumbstruck by the 4 hour

caricature it was quite impossible to wink or stop the standing ovation. That was some true piece of

art!!What are we talking about???yes indeed the history brought to real by the team SS

International Live and Magic Lantern by Mr.Ilango Kumanan and directed by Mr.Praveen. The epic

“Ponniyin Selven”... it was indeed a magic tat flipped us through centuries in seconds and seemed

like we were indeed a part of the epoch. It was not just a play it was a treasure unlocked to tell us

how proud we should be to entitle our self as being a part of Tamilnadu. Amazing us with

astonishing performances of a crew of 58 artists, they sure did gather aficionados all the three days

they were here. Our day of exhilaration started on 02.02.17 to 04.02.17 and had a perpetual

extolation from everyone till then, leaving us with a crave to want more of a visual treat. It was

difficult bidding good bye to the finest squad but it was quite staggering to see them giving their

views heart out. Any grand start slowly winds up its way into a magnificent finish we did culminate

it up with an exquisite valedictory where the artists were honoured with memento from the

honourable principle and correspondent. And we had some amazing feedbacks from the principal

and managing heads of the college telling what we just wanted to express as an individual. And not

to forget we did see some adored artist speak sharing how great it was to perform. Every moment of

those 4 hours was an epitome of what it was to live in the 10th century .It did make us want to go

back and live there forever.
