Finally, a quiz covered by PT
Quizzing and Page 3 just don't go together.
When Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management (SITM) conducts the Telecom Grandmasters Quiz, promotion of quizzing is not as important as the promotion of their event as they get PT to cover their event especially with the chief guests being Diana Hayden and Abhay Deol.
The result of the quiz was reported (understandably on pg. 3), with the title 'Matching wits at the biz quiz'. But perhaps due to the glitter involved in the quiz, the reporter Ms. Kharade (or the editor) forgot to write the most important part: news about the quiz, for the article told us everything about the forgotten and the upcoming films of the 2 celebs, what they wore and their experiences of the Mumbai floods.
So I'll do the PT guys the favour by reporting the stuff they missed.
Yet I'd agree on one bit from the article.
The list of guests included the who's who of the city including Akhilesh Agarwal, Anand Agarwal, Sulakshana Patankar, Deepak Natnani and Sudarsan Natu.
Who's who indeed, as after reading their names you're bound to wonder who's who?

- The name of the 'renowned business school of the city' is Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management.
- The name of the quiz was the Telecom Grandmasters Quiz, not the National Grandmasters Quiz.
- There were 5 teams, not 4. There were corporate and college teams.
- The winning team of Harshavardhan and Arnab (names mentioned thankfully) are from VIT. They were the only undergraduate college team and beat the other teams by a huge margin. Symbiosis Institute of Management Sciences (SIMS) came 2nd. Some more details here.

Amazing post Salil. Pune *Slimes* strikes again. Have to seach for this. Which date was this? Stopped "reading" PT long time back (for obvious reasons).:-)
