To make the event exciting, the students were quizzed about the various aspects of the film industry and included questions about actors, storylines, essential plot twists and character references to name a few. The questions asked were not just limited to multiple choices but also included filling in the blanks and identifying movie characters or places. The quiz had two rounds, with the winners of the first round moving on to the second round where they were given only 15 seconds to correctly answer each question!
