Theme: A Kaleidoscope of Path-breaking ideas

As Earl Nightingale once said-“Everything begins with an idea”. Ideas shape our being. Our world is nothing but an amalgamation of concepts; both abstract and representational. Some ideas get wings and soar high; some stay grounded waiting to touch the sky. It is a mix of those ideas that we aim to bring forth. Ideas spark ideas, our aim to create its picturesque ensemble.
