On the vibrant afternoon of 2nd August, 2025, Pillai College of Architecture came alive with laughter, cheer, and joy as students gathered to celebrate Friendship Day — a day dedicated to cherishing the beautiful bonds we share.
The event was inaugurated with a cheerful opening by the anchors, who set the tone for the celebration with an energetic welcome and a light-hearted take on friendship that had the crowd smiling and nodding along. Their heartfelt words and humorous anecdotes beautifully captured the spirit of the day.
To kick off the performances, 1st Year B.Sc. ID mesmerized the audience with their soulful poetry, reflecting on the emotions and connections that friendships nurture. Their verses left the crowd touched and inspired.
The energy on stage soared next with a duet dance performance by the talented 1st Year B.Sc. ID students, followed by the first interactive game — “Draw the Tail” — where students paired up to test their trust and teamwork through a fun blindfold challenge.
The laughter only got louder with the second game, “Guess the Hookstep”, a mini dance battle that had groups from each year shaking a leg and syncing moves to popular songs. The first winners’ announcement followed, recognizing the enthusiastic participants and their efforts.
The stage then welcomed 2nd Year B.Arch with a captivating group dance, quickly followed by another delightful duet dance from 2nd Year, leaving the audience cheering and applauding.
Then came Game 4: The Telepathy Test, where pairs competed to prove how well they knew their friends — answering quirky, relatable questioning.
The final game — Balloon Burst — brought a burst of energy (and balloons!) as participants raced against time in a fast-paced dash, making the entire hall echo with excitement and laughter. The final set of winners was then felicitated.
The anchors delivered a heartfelt concluding statement, reminding everyone of the value of genuine friendship and shared laughter. A warm thank you note followed, appreciating every performer, participant, and faculty member for making the event a grand success.
The celebration wrapped up on a high note with a DJ session, where students came together on the dance floor, letting loose and celebrating the very essence of friendship — unity, joy, and unconditional support.
