DIETETICS AND
NUTRITION
There is
no love sincere than the love for food. And the love only doubles when you can
cook what you love. But then there is a constant battle between what you can
eat and what you should. Every phase of our life is dominated by different
diets and this was exactly the theme of the competition.
The following diet
plans were prepared and presented:

Detox

bring diversity, magical elements and soul to our food. Everyone can cook but
the best cooks are the ones who love food.

“6 Yards of pure elegance, grace and beauty”
Saree is one of the oldest piece of
clothing used by women in India. This9 yards of unstitched cloth drapes around
a woman’s body to give her just the right amount of grace and oomph. On 27
February, 2016, the 3 months batch had their Saree draping competition. The
event was more of a celebration than a competition, where the students
celebrated their feminity. After weeks of untiring practices and efforts, the
students extruded confidence. Standing in bright, beautiful Sarees, the 19
students portrayed their skill and creativity, draped to perfection. Unlike the
basic draping style, the students tried and succeeded in creating works of art
with the 9 yards. Retro style, Jacket style, Mermaid style, Bengali draping,
Reverse Flounce etc. were only a glimpse of the vast variety of drapings
displayed in the competition. The judges carefully observed each and every
style and it was so tough for them to decide which drapping was the best.
