Ganpati Bappa Moriyaa....!!!

Ganesha Chaturthi, also known as Vinayaka Chaturthi is the Hindu festival of Ganesha, the son of Shiva and Parvati, who is believed to bestow his presence on earth for all his devotees in the duration of this festival. It is the birthday of Ganesha who is widely worshipped as the god of wisdom, prosperity and good fortune.

At SBS , this festival was celebrated from 1/9/11 for 10 days. Students have arranged everything right from getting the idol of Ganesha to decorating the Mandapa. They also took initiative to arrange the daily Prasada by contributing and collecting the funds. There was aarti sung by the students at mornings [8:30] and evenings[5:30].

On 10/9/11 i.e. Saturday at SBS Campus the ritual known as 'Ganesha Visarjan' took place at 5:00 p.m. All were invited for the 'Maha-Aarti' performed by the Panditji along with the ritual. After that sweets were distributed as the form of Prasada. All have performed this festival with great pomp and enthusiasm, playing with colors and dancing on the tunes of Dholi. All the students as well as faculty members were there for the ‘Visarjan –Yatra’ which ended up near Highway. From there onwards few of the students went till the river and performed Ganesh Visarjan near Ellis Bridge by immersing the idol in the river. .

By living fully, recognizing that all we do is by His power, we honor God; He in turn blesses us.

A Welcome to Remember - Ahmedabad Times - 08/09/2011

Freshmen’s Fizz, the annual welcoming party at Shanti Business School had the management fraternity dancing to the tunes of DJ Taral.
Seniors looked on with pride and a hint of reminiscence, remembering similar moments not too far ago. Saumil Mehta, a senior said “I can’t believe it’s been one year already since we were in the same place as these guys! They seem to be an awesome bunch and sure know how to have fun.”

Tired legs and weary eyes making their way back to their hostel rooms in the early hours of the morning marked the end of the academic year’s first party. While both work and play awaits the residents of SBS , the party heralded an exciting year ahead. It marks their transition from new, uninitiated freshmen to rightful members of a tradition that they will cherish and preserve.

Masquerade Theme Party @ SBS......!!!!!!!

For the 120 odd first year students that begin a new phase of their academic lives at SBS, Ahmedabad Saturday night was a watershed event. They danced, they grooved and they sung to the tunes of DJ Taral. They relived the excitement and pressures of the first few weeks. Most importantly they consummated a relationship with a place that they will never forget.

Seniors looked on with pride and a hint of reminiscence, remembering similar moments not too far ago. , Soumil Mehta, a senior said “I can’t believe it’s been one year already since we were in the same place as these guys! They seem to be an awesome bunch and sure know how to have fun. Moumita Dey, another senior added “It was a joy to see the seniors and juniors have so much fun together and SBS is impeccable as always. I think the traditions and legacy of SBS Culture has been passed into good hands.


The freshmen however were oblivious to such emotion; they were busy setting the dance floor on fire. D.J. Taral unflinchingly concentrated on his music and churned out one hit number after another to keep the party going till the wee hours of dawn.
