Summer Punk 2013
Summer Punk 2013, a Modelling and Talent Hunt, was successfully conducted at the City Centre Mall, MG Road. The Event received a huge footfall of over 500 people. Sponsored by Geetanjali Jewels, NewU Saloon, Habillez moi, Adorna, and Calipher, the Event witnessed 100 girls and boys from across the City thronging the venue for auditions. Most of them were college students. “Although I was nervous, I wanted to give it my best shot,” chirped the winner, Princy, who performed Chirmi, a Rajasthani folk dance in the talent round. Ravneet, winner in the male category said, “I have participated in many modelling hunts and shoots, but this is one of the most well organised events.” While many were novices, some of the participants had modelled earlier. A four-member jury – consisting of social activist Sanjana Jon, a choreographer Jayata Rohilla, model Shraddha Pandey, and fashion designer Deepak Singh – selected the winners.
