Top artists line-up for BU fests: Uphoria X Zenevia
By Amisha Piplani

With the fest right around the corner, students have been nothing but excited. The first-year students are getting their freshers’ party, Bluemoon 7.0, and the seniors are finally getting their first official fest- they're the pandemic students so it's a huge deal for them!

On Thursday, students were asked to gather around between C & D block for 'something big’. Two mysterious pillars awaited them in that space. These pillars were covered with large pieces of cloth. People playing dhol arrived from all directions and lightened the atmosphere with bhangra and good music.

The students participated in dancing with the dhol whilst still waiting to find out about the mysterious pillars. Suddenly, the music stopped and the 'dholwaalas' pointed at the pillars. Mr Vineet Jain, the Managing Director of Bennett, Coleman & Co. Ltd did the honours of removing the cloth from the first pillar- revealing the names 'Jubin Nautiyal' and 'Antariksh'. Students' cheers were so loud that they could be heard from inside the hostel.

Jubin Nautiyal, the popular playback singer with almost 10 million followers on his Instagram- he is famous for some of the most-played Bollywood songs like Raatan Lambiyan.

Antariksh is an India Rock/Pop band known for their rock versions of Bollywood songs such as Dil Chahta Hai and also their originals like 'Kaha re' and 'Quest'.
Gaurav Kapoor and Nizami Bandhu also in line-up
Srijan Singh, a 3rd-year B-Tech student designed the posters for the reveal, he took the fabric off of the second pillar revealing the names 'Gaurav Kapoor' and ' Nizamu Bandhu'. Gaurav Kapoor is a stand-up comedian who has taken the nation by storm with his stand-up comedy videos- which are shared everywhere repeatedly. Nizami Bandhu is one of India's oldest and most popular sufi band. They have been featured in movies like Kalank, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Rockstar and Yahaan.

If the hype for Uphoria X Zenevia wasn't enough already, the artists’ reveal marked the day when everyone was left speechless.
