Diwali is a very special time in India, where everyone is in the spirit of celebrating goodness over evil and light over darkness. Family and friends come together and carry out their festive rituals and bring out all the lights and sparkles to commemorate the victory of good over evil. The best part about a festival like Diwali in a country that has so much cultural diversity is the different ways in which the festival is celebrated across the nation- each grander in its own way, associated with unique rituals… just like DDReg and its tradition of a grand Diwali Gala!
DDReg Diwali Gala 2024
This year has brought on some significant developments for DDReg in many ways where the teams have graciously adapted to and embraced change. It was only fitting to have a grand Diwali Gala to celebrate the achievements and development of the teams.
The evening started with a video memoir of the previous Diwali Gala’s that DDReg held. This highlighted some fond memories and reminded everyone of the successful developments and milestones that we have all achieved together. Following the memoir, came the team catwalk- an annual ritual that is held at the opening of DDReg’s Diwali Gala where pairs could “strut their stuff” and show off their beautiful outfits… while slowly getting into the celebratory spirit.
People came together to
showcase dance performances and poetry recitals. This year we saw the “Gen Zs” step
into the spotlight to prepare short reels that captured some funny office
moments. Solo performances also gave individuals the chance to share their
creativity and build their confidence- the joy was truly contagious!
Following the individual acts, the group medley performance took center stage, leaving everyone spellbound with collaborative dances. These group acts not only showcased the incredible camaraderie among colleagues but also underscored the importance of teamwork and collaboration—core values at DDReg. In a final touch of appreciation, awards were presented to outstanding performers, honoring their contributions to the success of the evening.
The gala was more than just a party; it was a vibrant celebration of togetherness. Employees from various backgrounds, roles, and departments came together in a festive environment, sharing laughter, dancing, and creating lasting memories. Events like these go beyond a simple break from work; they strengthen bonds, foster inclusivity, and uplift spirits. DDReg’s commitment to celebrating diversity and nurturing a collaborative work environment shone brightly in this Diwali Gala, leaving a lasting impression on everyone who was part of the celebration.
