Such is the enthralling crowd of the best brains in the country. And such is the rare occasion when these unlikely and uncommon quintessential would-be managers do get together to shout. This was another such occasion.
The thrilled hearts kept beating fast, this time not in anxiety, but with added responsibility – to form a bunch of thoughtfully gullible, willingly clumsy, skilfully frenetic, woeful survivors on milk and cornflakes and to make IIM L (read Hell) Hellarious… an unbelievable combination of always-in-a-hurry nerds and unpredictable times.
