"To show the unveiled, To provide the unseen, To acquaint the unnoticed, and to make you feel the unexperienced"

Exploring the art forms worldwide and glorifying its history & prestige with the BEAUTIFUL PERFORMANCES, ARTICO OF PRERNA’14 was the perfect amalgam of eloquent arts.

LASER SHOW INDIA : Expanded wings in Bollywood through Yash Raj Films-by Band BaajaBaarat, Art Thirst continues towards corporate to RIL-Jamnagar, and continuing it to National Defence Academy, IIT-Madras, IIST-ISRO Trivendrum-Kerala and SVNIT Surat.

RADIUM LIGHT PAINTING : A show by India’s Got Talent season-5 fame VIVEK PATIL that titillated one and all.

The DANCE INDIA DANCE fame Kamlesh Patel followed with an exhilarating DANCE ON HANDS PERFORMANCE.

Paying a tribute to our national anthem which completed 100 years in 2013, we celebrated the era of prosperity from the depth of our society’s integrity. PRERNA attempted a record in which 604 deaf and mute people displayed their calibre of unmatched synchronisation by performing the national anthem of India in their sign language. This resplendent moment was witnessed by the Barodians on 3rd August 2013 at the Faculty of Technology and Engineering, M S University, Baroda.

'PRERNA' earned a place in the very reverential 2015 edition of 'LIMCA BOOK OF RECORDS' for the same. This sublime act has not been performed in the history of the nation previously. In keeping up with its tradition of aiming beyond the realms of accepted norms, PRERNA, once again celebrates its success. So let’s come together and salute the talent of those who hear through their eyes, and those who glorified the century of our National Anthem.

"Where words fail, the art speaks..."

In the wings of artistry, PRERNA presented DHAVAL KHATRI- a double amputee magical painter. Embracing the world record of painting in one minute, he has performed in many reality shows including Entertainment KeLiyeKuchBhiKarega. Each stroke of his paint brush is so emotive that it triggers out plethora of ecstatic vibes in every viewer. The well lit altruism lets the whole mass awestruck with his jaw dropping live paintings.

This is not all!! PRERNA also witnessed the amazing world of shadows coming alive. The incredible duo Amar Sen and SabyasachiSen, having world at their fingertips presented the phenomenal act of HAND SHADOWGRAPHY AND SAND ART.

The exquisite world of shadows, a unique art form which is combination of hands and fingers on blank screen telling you a million stories with a combined audio visual effect. Thousands of images flashing graciously on screen, enthusiasm growing larger and larger, this never seen before artistry bowled everyone over with thrill.

"A small step is better than no step, especially when it’s the first step towards a dream."

Sports are not just an activity of winning or losing, it strengthens the intellect required in fighting against the atrocious world. Wheelchair basketball personifies the pain flying in the air, each player flinging it away from them with enough force. Today, Wheelchair basketball is one of the most popular sports at the Paralympics.

There is no equality in individual abilities but PRERNA pledges to provide equal opportunities to all. Champions focus on finding ways and not excuses. Its awe to steer the wheelchair forward with one hand while dribbling the basketball with the other.PRERNA'13 witnessed the rarest of the rare ‘WHEELCHAIR BASKETBALL’ which left a striking impression in the minds of all Barodians present.

"The starting point of any achievement is desire..."

With their desire to do something incredible, the National Award winning dance group ABILITY UNLIMITED FOUNDATION, last year, expanded the boundaries of dance and changed the perception of what a dancer is.

It was not the WHEEL-CHAIRS but the WILL-CHAIRS of this New Delhi based dance group,as they call it, that produced a spellbinding show that held the audience captive.

Proving their mettle at National and International podiums, they firmly condemned the unjust notions and prejudices held by the society regarding the differently abled.The dynamic presence of ABILITY UNLIMITED along with their leader, Syed Sallauddin Pasha at PRERNA in 2012 enthralled the audience with their vibrancy.

"Somewhere, music is a belief....."

PRERNA in 2011 witnessed not just a band but a way of looking at life. UDAAN, a band featuring 7 visually challenged people, gave a new vision to music. Casting a magic spell of well litaltruism,UDAAN strategically opened a wide avenue of exotic options for those who discovered determination beyond limitations.They have certainely proved that when you really want something,the universe conspires in your favour.

The only desire of the promising musicians of UDAAN to excel in music is now being recognised by the whole nation.

The formation of the band was based on a very unique philosophy of bringing integration between the people belonging to every strata of society. Becoming a morale of the society,they are continuosly spreading a simple message to never surrender to any limitations. The talented artists silently affirm that "We will be the change".

By the noble initiative of four young girls, to serve society, PRERNA came into existence. With every step taken, Prerna commenced at district level in the year 2006, at FTE,MSU.

The year 2008 was the foundation year for the core visitor event SEARCH THY SOUL in which visitors got a chance to interact with a visually impaired participant for the first time.

With a new organising team, renewed energy and enthusiasm of volunteers, PRERNA became a state level event in the year 2009.

One of the unique and eye catching events, BLIND CRICKET TOURNAMENT, was introduced in PRERNA for the first time in year 2010.

PRERNA, an inspiration for many, became the only social event organised by engineering students at National level in whole of INDIA. In the year 2011, Gujarat witnessed for the first time Disabled Cricket Tournament and live performance by Mumbai based blind band, UDAAN.

In the year of 2012, PRERNA got its new official logo and organised a live performance by Delhi based National Award Winner group, ABILITY UNLIMITED.

PRERNA-THE EMANCIPATION is like a Banyan Tree which now not only shelters the differently abled people but also the ones which are often neglected by a large section of society, the OLD AGED people.

In 2013, PRERNA witnessed a splendid performance of our National Anthem by 604 deaf and mute in their sign language hence putting forward an example of 'silent synchronisation.'

PRERNA’14 took a huge leap forward by organising an exhibition match of BLIND FOOTBALL for the first time in the history of Gujarat that quite literally left the spectators awestruck.
