“Some projects are organised. Some are executed. But Vidiyal is lived. Titles disappear. Designations don't matter. WE become ONE team...! Team?... ONE family working towards ONE purpose.....! There's a different kind of energy during Vidiyal season — be it the calls, the planning, the coordination, which turns out to create a beautiful bond among us. Kit assembling days are my absolute favourite. It's a beautiful how something so simple can mean so much.”
