MTI Divali Celebrations 2010

The spirit of light and reawakening filled the air at Nicholas Tower on Wednesday 3rd November, when MTI staff participated in our 2010 Divali Celebrations. Hats off to the TICITT team for organizing this successful event which showcased different aspects of this important religious and cultural festival.

Along with outstanding performances from dancer Karishma Kerrie Ramoutar and singers Kevin Khan and Sheetal Sirjudeen and a very interesting and informative address from our guest speaker, Maya Vahini, MTI staff got the chance to participate in a Best Dressed Competition and a live Divali Quiz. Ten lucky staff members also had their hands decorated with mehendi designs by the very talented Hannah, who also explained the origins of this beautiful and fascinating practice.

Many thanks to our excellent hosts Tition Ali and Avinash Khoorban, for doing such a wonderful job keeping staff entertained and connected and congrats to all winners and all those who participated in this year’s celebrations!
