India, 28^th January 2022: It’s the coldest month of the season for India, but something hot is brewing in Mumbai. Chingari presents Mood Indigo, the annual cultural festival of IIT Bombay, which is back with a boom. India’s #1 short-video app Chingari associates with IIT Bombay Mood Indigo: An Ethereal Odyssey, in its 51st edition, as their Title Sponsor. The annual cultural festival by Mood Indigo is one of the most awaited festivals of Bombay and attracts many young, talented and tech-savvy audiences that have the potential to become future stars of Chingari App. 

29^th & 30^th Jan will be a fun weekend for the youth in India, as Chingari and Mood Indigo are all set to make this weekend a fun experience for everyone who loves tech, music, entertainment and have terribly missed their campus life in the last 2 years. So it’s time to mark your calendars for this weekend and experience a journey like never before. Mood Indigo, presented by Chingari app, will provide the best get-away tour to a Virtual World with power-packed competitions, soothing music bands, surreal talents showcased and a line-up of powerful sessions by esteemed speakers. 

Mr. Sumit Ghosh, Co-founder & CEO, Chingari App, said “The cultural and signature festival of Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, has everything that Chingari App vouches for. Through our partnership with Mood Indigo we aim to celebrate the spirit of cultural diversity and adventure with those who love to explore various art forms and appreciate intellectual thoughts and talents all bought together on the same platform. This is exactly the vibe that Chingari users and creators share on our platform. The tech connection that we share is also something that is very close to our hearts, which is why Chingari powered by $GARI in association with IIT Bombay will be organizing a Hackathon in the coming months for the tech geeks of India”

Our association with Mood Indigo was with the aim to build a stronger connection with our target audiences, i.e. young and enthusiastic students, and what better platform than the IIT Bombay’s cultural festival to connect with them. We hope to interact with and come across many talented students and potential creators who can understand the Chingari vibe and groove with it, said Mr. Deepak Salvi, Co-founder & COO, Chingari App

A Mood Indigo Core Group Member said, “With Chingari as our Title Sponsor, we believe that people are sure to get an experience like never before. We have created a virtual campus simulation where people will be able to attend concerts, talk shows, stand up shows and many more.” The festival is set to kick off on 29th January and end on 30th January.  

This year, esteemed guests like Smriti Irani, Gautam Gambhir, Tushar Kapoor, Divya Dutta, Tahir Bhasin, Amish Tripathi, Kailash Kher, and B Praak are expected to mark their presence. Any cultural festival is incomplete without music. Eight music bands will celebrate their presence from different countries like Argentina, Germany, India, Canada, Poland, with many more lined up. Talent is intrinsic to any cultural festival, and Mood Indigo is no different. Under Talent Fiesta, talent shows will be taking place this weekend, with artists performing from all over the globe. With the likes of Andrew Lee and Daniel Guedes showing their insane magic tricks, the Talent Fiesta will surely be a big hit.
