Celebrations command a special place at Planet-I. The Institute boasts of a large batch size with good batch diversity and the different cultures bring along a mélange of festivities which are celebrated with great fervour. But the most awaited happenings are the regional dinners be it the Bengali cuisine during Durga Puja or the delectable authentic Kerala feast during Onam. From the upbeat War of DJs to the colourfulDandiya nights and the wacky Holi celebrations, Planet-I is a party place.
Amidst the daily commotion and never-ending medley of assignments, JAM and Pi-Shop provide the much-needed respite. JAM (Juices and More) is a completely student-run initiative of Planet-I. The fresh juices and shakes are a welcome change to the mess food. The ever so popular Pi-shop has been recently revamped. From the lifesaving supply of tea-time snacks and namkeen to the entire range of personal care products, Pi-shop is truly the merchandising hub of IIM-I. The junta has been spoilt for choice by poha point and a kachori centre within the campus.
Every Institute has a go-to place which the students would flock to, like hermits visiting a shrine. And for IIM-I, that spot is reserved for the night mess. The place comes alive as soon as the clock strikes 12 and the ritualistic birthday celebrations commence. People come here seeking creative freedom from their draining schedules, and this is the hotspot for all campus chit-chat. The aroma of tea, endless noise and brimming liveliness of this place make it the melting pot of the campus.
Which ABG company would you want to work for and why?
I would like to be a part of ABFRL which includes Madura Fashion & Lifestyle and India’s largest big box fashion retailer, Pantaloons. Being associated with brands such as Van Heusen, Allen Solly, Forever 21, People and Pantaloons in-house brands for a long time, it would be a lifetime opportunity for me to work with a fashion-retail giant. Having said that girls like to be a part of a fashion frenzy organisation, so do I aspire to be associated with world-class brands. Also, the MBA skills which we have acquired so far would complement in this regard, majorly towards marketing domain in the firm
