Theatrix once again entertained our Kampus
this year by putting up a number of plays. Each
play made us push the bar set by PGP 16 higher.
We started the year with Murder.
PGP 18 made a kick start of their theatrix chapter by putting up Playing Along - a dark comedy
for Backwaters. Falling in line with our tradition
of junior batch shouldering the responsibility of
being flag bearers in competition, Echoes saw
not one but two plays. Chikitsa ka chakkar - an
adaptation of a short story by Bedhab Banarasi went on to win the second spot for IIMK. It
presented our viewers a light hearted take on
medical malpractice. 10000 Cigarettes on the
other hand presented a dark humorous take on
smoking in a unique narration style.
2015 also, witnessed not 1 or 2 but 3 plays within
a week. A daunting task with 3 consecutive productions taking place, Theatrix never slept for a
month. Starting with Janahit me Jaari, a satire
on Universal Identity in India saw PGP 17 emerging with punchy dialogues that echo long after

in the Kampus to connect with the audience has
been the USP of Theatrix that PGP17 and 18 have
witnessed in the play Janahit me Jaari.Also it
was the first time when theatrix handled a crew
of over 25 people including production and lights.
Instead of venting out frustration in the choicest
of adjectives, people actually switched to numbers taking inspiration from the play. This was
followed by the beautiful adaptation of the classic Mama Mia made possible by Theatrix and
Krescendos collaboration.

from nature, wildlife, still life, people landscapes
to abstract. Some of the photographs were purchased by the onlookers and the proceeds from
the event were used to buy stationary items
which were donated to school going kids. Also,
selected photographs from the exhibition were

encourage the passion for photography and student run initiatives.

Tripod has a very active page on Facebook which

The year 2014-2015 was an astounding year for
E-Cell, IIM Kozhikode. Riding on the waves of
entrepreneurial activity going on in the country during the last few years, Entrepreneurship
and Innovation Cell took several key initiatives
towards meeting its objective of creating a nurturing forum for start-ups in the campus and putting IIM Kozhikode in one of the coveted place in
countrys entrepreneurial eco-system. With the
highest number of entrepreneurs in any PGDM
batch (during 2015-16), IIM Kozhikode was noted
highly in the leading newspaper of the country.
Among the initiatives taken last year, notably has
been:
1. A series of workshops and guest lectures for
guiding and imparting skills for starting a new
venture for IIM Kozhikode students. A workshop
of Ideation and problem identification, with collaboration with Thoughtworks was organised.
This shall be taken forward this year by organising workshops in Legal aspects of start-ups,
Funding aspects, Exit strategies, and pitching
B-Plan to investors.

2. Start-Up Cell : This 3-round initiative (of

which Round 1 is over) provides students a forum
for putting their ideas into actions. Through a
continued mentorship program from Alumni Entrepreneurs and others, Ecell shall guide the students who have developed and submitted their
B-Plan to Ecell. Apart from mentorship and managerial assistance, Start-Up Cell also would help
to provide financial aid from investors and venture capitalists
3. Networking : With the intent to place Ecell, IIM
K into a pivot position, networking rounds have
been initiated which would provide students of
IIM K a network with investors, mentors, legal
experts and incubation centres across the country. With even more enthusiasm, we look forward
to PGP 19, who are willing to create a marked
difference in themselves and the institute by either following the path of entrepreneurship or
being part of a society which is poised to be a
front-runner in entrepreneurial ecosystem of the
country in years to come.
