Odissi Dance performance by Mrs Monalisa Ghosh. On the second night, the
audience will see the participants on stage with their ramp walk during
‘Verve’, which will be judged by Ms Vanya Mishra, Miss India 2012.

which included a pan-Patna race and a flash mob. The Pan-Patna race, a treasure
hunt across the city, is one of the flagship events of the fest.

the attractions this year is the rock performance on the closing night when Euphoria will
