•Skit :

The skit traversed a vast landscape of pressing societal issues, starting with the heavy clouds of unemployment, the cracks in our educational framework, and the contentious storms surrounding rape cases. It ventured into the trials faced by women depicted in *Stree 3*, emphasizing the urgent need for women's empowerment. The performance tackled the provocative theme of “Gandhi Marte Kyun Nahi Hai,” weaving in the unifying anthem of “Hum Sab 1 Hai” (We Are All One). It shed light on the pervasive shadow of corruption in the job market, the notion of paperless transactions, and the dreams encapsulated in “Hu sapana thoda vechu chu” (I Want to Sell My Dreams), alongside a lament for the crumbling roads of Bhavnagar.
Through vivid characterization, the skit portrayed the struggles of individuals grappling with joblessness and financial woes, illustrating how such challenges can cast a pall over their spirits. It addressed the complex realities surrounding rape cases, revealing the barriers of legal systems, societal perceptions, and institutional constraints that often hinder victims from finding justice. The performance also highlighted the marginalized experiences of those who identify outside the binary of male and female, showcasing the discrimination and limited opportunities they face.
Using humor as a powerful lens, the skit cleverly illuminated serious themes, interspersing laughter with poignant commentary. The creative integration of music, varied vocal expressions, and dynamic pacing ensured the narrative remained engaging and resonant, leaving an indelible mark on the audience's minds.
• Bhajan:

When we compare Bhajans to English literature, we can look at their themes, styles, and cultural features. Bhajans often explore themes like solitude, the search for spirituality, love, and self-discovery. While English literature also covers these topics, Bhajans uniquely highlight them within the context of Gujarati culture. The use of Gujarati phrases, such as "મોતીડા પરોવો પાનબાઈ," adds a cultural touch that is specific to Bhajans. In a similar way, English literature often includes cultural references that depend on the author's background and the story being told.
In terms of structure, Bhajans can be compared to narratives that focus on personal journeys, much like novels or essays. The wide range of Bhajans performed showcases the various themes and experiences found in this literary form. One key feature of Bhajans is their philosophical nature, which often reflects the idea of "Vairagya," or detachment. Lines like "Ghadvaiya mare Thakorji nathi thavu" (Even if the world falls apart, I won’t abandon my Lord), "Mane jya game che tya Haru chu faru chu" (I wander aimlessly in search of my Lord), "AMbani Dale Koyal ji re" (Oh Koyal, sing in the Ambe grove), "Zer to pidha jani jani re" (Drinking poison knowingly), "Shilvant Sadhune" (Oh wise sage), "Odhaji" (Oh Odhaji), and "Dhuni re Dhakhavi re beli" (Oh bonfire, burn brightly) illustrate this deep philosophical meaning.

Mimicry, a challenging and intricate art form, demands that participants master the ability to recreate a wide range of sounds, from the rumble of trains and the whizzing of bullets to the hum of helicopters and the echo of conch shells. They skillfully mimicked animals, creaky doors, chirping birds, famous actors, the fizz of soda bottles, traditional Daklas, the boom of bombs, and even the subtle rhythm of heartbeats. Impressions of personalities like Farah Khan and Kangana Ranaut, along with beloved characters such as Oggy and Doraemon, were brought to life. Some participants added a creative twist by weaving rhymes into their performances, elevating the entertainment value.

• Here title of the song as below 👇
1.આવું શાને થાય છે
2.મહેકતી હવામાં કંઈક તો સમાયું છે
3.ગાતા ખોવાયું ગીત શોધો હવે કલરવની ભીડમાં
4.આખિર ઇસ દર્દની દવા ક્યાં છે
5.દિલ એ નદાન
6.કૌન રે છેડે ઓલા,તારે રે દરબાર મેઘરાણા
7.ઓ વાલમ તારી આંખોમાં ઉડે રંગ ફુવારા
8.કુચી આપો બાજી
9. સૂરજના અંધારે ગળેલી રાત
10.એક પથ્થરમાંથી બનાતા શિલ્પને અદર મળે, જો માથરું જીંદગીને તો જ નકાર મળે.
