The most sought afterJai Hind College has an astounding history of extremely talented alumni who have played a role in shaping the very nation we live in today. From street performers and comedians, to some of the most popular Bollywood personalities, Jai Hind College has left a legacy of talent that can never be forgotten. This begs the question, does the generation of today still have what it takes to reach those incredible levels of success and fame? The answer to this question was, is and always will be yes, as proven during the talent show, Performer’s Paradise, hosted by the Social and Dramatic Union, the premier cultural committee of Jai Hind College.

On the 22nd of December, 2022, a new wave of energy flowed through the college campus, as the shining stars of tomorrow walked the hallways, flair and passion almost oozing through their every step. These were some of the most talented individuals the city of Mumbai had to offer, and as the judges took their seats while the audience sounded a deafening roar, they walked up onto the stage and dazzled every onlooker with the sheer mastery and brilliance of their art. Magnificent songs that shook the audience to their core, dances so graceful the whole crowd swayed with the beats and grooves, and even stand up performances which produced laughter so loud that voices from the entire building were drowned out for minutes at a time. Even the HODs of the SDU couldn’t help but jump in, surprising everyone by getting on stage and showing their splendid moves! A day which could’ve been barely any different from a regular Thursday, had suddenly been turned into a core memory. Who knew all you needed was the company of some of the greatest performers in the country?

When it comes to the work of the SDU, SHOUTT is the first thing that comes to mind. For good reason too, as it’s one of the greatest college experiences you can ask for in Mumbai. However, Jai Hind College is in itself so full and bursting with talent, it deserves a separate stage of its own to blaze in all its glory. This was the thinking that went behind Performer’s Paradise, and after that immensely successful and priceless experience, it’s safe to say that the decision to host this event was a great one.
