About sixteen:nine International Film Festival

SNIFF stands for sixteen:nine International Film Festival, launched by the students of Usha Pravin Gandhi College of Management. It promotes student filmmaking and independent cinema through the medium of short films.
Radhika is committee member/content writer for the Literature Department of SNIFF '09. This blog is a record of her thoughts and experiences during the making of SNIFF '09. She is entitled to an opinion about everything and due to superior verbal stamina, she has to talk about it. In general, she loves reading and listening to music in her free-time. Her favourite activities include writing, dancing and playing throwball. She tries to imitate planet Earth and sometimes even the Solar system while moving around, otherwise she's pretty human. Her two standing rules are:
1. No Khan-bashing (Khan being the VCP, who she respects tremendously)
2. No talking about SNIFF over food (which assures a SNIFF-free ambience for at least 2 hours everyday).

29th September

Happiness has taken over SNIFF. With 7 entries in hand today, from the University of Mumbai and a clay-modelling company sponsoring a whopping Rs. 2,00,000 for SNIFFety SNIFF(okay, I got my facts wrong, or rather in the wrong order. Some company sponsoring the clay-modelling event), things seem to have turned unusually bright. (oh hell these guys can’t seem to decide where the clay comes in the picture). I couldn’t capture the moment of course, but Khan and Co. were more grins than I’ve seen them in the past month. I had my own share of grinning to do. It happens to be Srinath’s birthday, and I’ve quite handled the celebrations. Two cakes, a whole lot of people wishing him, a lot of whom who haven’t heard of him included, chocolate on the floor (yeah dearies, chocolate wasted right before my horrified eyes!), me mopping it, a singing candle that went on to play its mourning tune for 3 hours. Wish Anand was here. Poor guys would’ve found the chaos way beyond tolerance. The visiting cards are ready. Oh by the way, I think sri’s peering over my shoulder. Affirmative. I thought he’d be embarrassed by the whole birthday affair, but he seemed to have enjoyed it. I’m glad, I would’ve run home if there was such a yada yada made about my janamdin. But, I stick to happiness as the theme.
