ResoFEST 2025 Begins in Hyderabad With Grand Celebrations, Inspiring Addresses by Eminent Leaders

HYDERABAD NOV 14 (RNI) The much-awaited ResoFEST 2025, the annual cultural and educational celebration hosted by Resonance Junior Colleges and Resonance Schools, commenced with grandeur at the Gachibowli Stadium here on Friday.

Day 2 of ResoFEST 2025 was graced by distinguished guests, including Lavu Rathaiah, Founder & Chairman Vignan Group of Institutions, N. V. Ramana, Former Chief Justice of India, K. I. Varaprasad Reddy, Founder & Chairman of Shantha Biotechnics, Smt. Riti Raj, IPS, Deputy Commissioner of Police, Madhapur, Mouli, Indian Actor, Anil Ravipudi, Indian Film Director & Screenwriter and Actor Sai Dharam Tej.

N. V. Ramana said, This is an age when you are carefree, filled with dreams and unbridled hope. Let me share a little wisdom I gained through my life. Today, we rely heavily on technology in this fast-changing internet era, and you may often get swayed by negative influences without even seeking them. 

Social media floods you with irrelevant noise, so be cautious. Never compare yourself with others, every person has a unique personality and intellect, and grows at their own pace. 

Have a clear goal and pursue it with focus. You may face stress from parents, peers, society, and faculty, unsure of what your future holds. But remember, opportunities today are vast, you need not struggle with a profession you don’t love. Follow your dreams. Don’t get carried away by what you see on social media or live in an illusionary world, most of it isn’t real. Avoid excessive time online. With moral science and life lessons missing in today’s education, you must consciously build such values yourself. 

Cinema too has a strong influence on youth, but real life and reel life are worlds apart; don’t get trapped in that imaginary space. The widening gap between urban and rural India brings challenges, so urban students must understand rural realities and societal issues to stay grounded. 

Participate in sports, they teach teamwork, discipline, leadership, and how to accept defeat. Develop hobbies to overcome stress. Remember, technology is only a tool; don’t become its slave. Your education should prepare you for life’s challenges. Life itself is the greatest teacher; the lessons it gives have no substitute. You are going to be invaluable assets to the nation as India rises to become a global leader.

Lavu Rathaiah addressing the students said, I am truly delighted to see my student, Purnachandar Rao, doing so well and leading this remarkable institution. You are now entering an extremely competitive phase with your Intermediate finals, EAMCET, JEE, and NEET ahead.

The next three months will be among the most crucial in your academic journey. It is natural to feel pressure from faculty, parents, and even yourself, sometimes leading to stress or depression. But remember, the enthusiasm and confidence you carry today are your strongest tools to overcome this phase.

As a teacher, here are a few thoughts that may help you navigate this period, set a clear goal and work steadily towards it, maintain a healthy diet and stay physically fit, ensure you get sound sleep, use your mobile phone wisely, try keeping your screen time under one hour a day, your success is often inversely proportional to the time spent on the phone. Work hard, give your best, trust your effort and remember, even if you don’t secure the rank you aimed for in EAMCET or other competitive exams, do not be disappointed. Opportunities today are far broader than just engineering or medicine. India is on the path to becoming a global leader, prepare yourself to be part of that incredible journey.

K. I. Varaprasad Reddy said, India is a nation with great wisdom of philosophical, scientific, health, economically well ahead for centuries, even before the western nations knew what culture was, we had culture, heritage. India was the guiding light for all, 2000 ago we had great centres of learning like Takshashila, Nalanda, and provided wisdom and knowledge to foreigners.   

An Evening of Eminence and Inspiration

Each guest shared personal insights on perseverance, creativity, and purpose, urging students to embrace learning as a lifelong journey. Their words resonated deeply, reminding the young audience that success stems not from competition, but from curiosity, discipline, and self-belief.
