OWN EVENT BY STUDENTS
NATIONAL ACADEMY OF
MEDIA & EVENTS
“Pehchaan- A journey to discover talents unknown” is a social initiative by NAtional Academy of
Media & Events. The idea stemmed from the essence of our 'NAME' itself. NAME is focused towards
shaping the future of the young minds, helping students to carve an identity for themselves. So, as an
event management institution, we wanted our students to organise an event to help the lesser-known
talents get recognition.
Our students gave this idea a wonderful shape by organising the first pehchaan event as a grass-root
talent show for lesser-privileged children. In its four months campaign, they scouted for talents in the
narrow lanes of Kolkata, visited all slums, shelter homes & NGOs. After receiving 1056 registrations
they provided professional training to the kids for a month in four categories: Dance, singing, drama,
art& craft. The finale show saw 132 talented kids as the showcase their talents to the city of joy on
7th July at GD Birla Sabhakar.
