New Delhi — Remember the crooning sensation of hits like ‘Moh Moh Ke Dhaage’? The air of Delhi University’s South campus, specifically Maitreyi College, recently got emotionally stirred with the mellifluous voice of Monali Thakur.
Music Melting Hearts at Maitreyi
The aroma of street chai wafting across Varma Tea Stall near the college gate and a row of shiny autos aligning themselves every morning is an everyday sight. This day, however, was different. The campus was abuzz with all eyes dedicated towards the auditorium, where Monali Thakur was set to reignite youthful spirits with her powerful performance. The emotional chord struck through her heartfelt rendition of soulful Bollywood melodies was a refreshing break from the usual academic hustle-bustle, leaving the audience at the brink of tears and nostalgia.
Gushing Youth and Contained Excitement
As the news spread, students from nearby colleges like Janki Devi Memorial and Jesus and Mary College were seen hurrying towards Maitreyi. Preena, a student from Maitreyi, beamed with excitement and said “We feel lucky to experience such events amidst the strenuous academic journey. This helps shift focus and keep our creative vibes alive”. In no time the auditorium was flooded with a sea of students resorting to art to break free from their mundane schedule. The impact was more than just emotional, it was transformative.
