Mumbai’s St. Xavier’s College has set the stage for annual intercollegiate fest, Malhar. At a press conference held on August 1, the organisers unveiled the Conclave 2025 lineup—an eclectic mix of achievers from across fields, all aligned with this year’s theme, “Leher: Ripple Today, a Revolution Tomorrow.”
One of the key highlights is the presence of actor Aditya Roy Kapur, who will bring the Conclave to a close on August 16.

Social activist, entrepreneur, singer, and content creator Avanti Nagral was present at the session and spoke about her experience, stressing the importance of staying authentic to oneself while striving to create real change. Her words resonated profoundly with the Conclave's vision, that of shining a light on individuals whose efforts have made a real difference in their respective fields.

Scheduled for August 15 and 16, the Conclave will feature an roster. Among the speakers is Dr. Seema Rao, India’s first and only woman commando trainer; Justice Devendra Kumar Upadhyay, Chief Justice of the Delhi High Court; Benne Dosa founders Akhil Iyer and Shriya Narayan; and bestselling author Ashwin Sanghi.
Adding a touch of glamour, the cast of the upcoming Netflix series Saare Jahan Se Accha—Pratik Gandhi, Anup Soni, Kritika Kamra, and Sunny Hinduja—will make a special appearance. The sports segment will see participation from cricket veteran Amol Mazumdar, Olympian shooter Suma Shirur, and athlete Bhagyashree Jadhav. Also joining the panel is Supriya Sule, four-term MP from Baramati, bringing political insight to the mix.
With the theme of "The World Within," Malhar 2025 promises to deliver powerful and energising sessions, workshops, and events.
