The main event was for 'Item Numbers' and 'Spoofs'. Each team was lead by the department head as the 'Mascot' and had a cheer leading Squad.....

It was a lot of FUN......

The allcheckdeals team got the prize for best item number..... You can see why... ;-)

They danced on 'Bhutni ke' from Singh is King.

The Best spoof prize was bagged by the marketing team for doing a Bollywood version of Big Boss...... They were really funny and had us in splits of laughter......
Vinny's Gabbar, Anirban's Mithun, Sachin's Amitabh Bachan, Aakriti's Rakhi Sawant, Sukhpreet's Hema Malini, Archit's Bobby Deol..... Were amazing..... The script was so full of punches, people were rolling with laughter.....
