Live science shows for schools Bengaluru

Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.

Manthan turns Physics, Chemistry, Maths and Biology into live, hands-on experiments. Students see, touch, predict and question until the textbook finally makes sense.

Who we are

Educators who turn the classroom into a stage.

“When curiosity meets clarity, learning becomes unstoppable.”

We are a team of Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and Biology educators, experimenters and demonstrators. We believe learning should never feel like memorising formulas. It should feel like discovering how the world works.

We draw on real-world phenomena, from the power of air pressure to the mysteries of static electricity, and present them so that students can see, touch and understand. Every experiment is tied to a curriculum topic, so the entertainment always serves the learning.

01Experienced educators
Simplify complex concepts into student-friendly moments.
02Science demonstrators
Turn theory into live experiments, safely and accurately.
03Science communicators
Connect science to everyday life and spark the “why”.

The Manthan show

10+ acts. Zero boring moments.

Each act is built around one idea from the syllabus — shown live, explained clearly, opened up to questions.

Why Manthan

Not just what happens, but why it happens.

Too often, students see science as formulas to memorise. Manthan reverses that. It is concept-driven, not gadget-driven.

  1. 01

    Concept before spectacle

    Unlike tech-heavy shows, every act is built around the principle behind the phenomenon.

  2. 02

    Integrated subject thinking

    Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics merge naturally, building holistic understanding instead of isolated facts.

  3. 03

    Hands-on participation

    Students predict, observe and reason through results. Learning becomes active.

  4. 04

    Designed by educators

    Created and delivered by subject experts, not event managers, and mapped to curriculum outcomes.

  5. 05

    Fits any venue

    Portable, stage-friendly setups that work in classrooms, auditoriums or open grounds.

  6. 06

    Safety first

    Trained professionals and certified materials. High-voltage and cryogenic setups run behind safety barriers.

What schools get

  1. Enriched learningStudents witness concepts first-hand, deepening classroom understanding.
  2. Whole-school engagementFormats for Grades 6–8, 9–10 and 11–12.
  3. Teacher empowermentPost-show resources and strategies to boost teaching.
  4. A stronger STEM culturePerfect for science weeks, exhibitions and annual days.
  5. Institutional distinctionA unique, curriculum-aligned programme that sets your school apart.
  6. Lasting motivationStudents leave curious enough to explore beyond the classroom.

Not just edutainment

We measure what students learn.

  1. 01

    Pre & post quizzes

    Structured questionnaires measure concept clarity and track improvement from the session.

  2. 02

    Live polls & Q&A

    Real-time predictions and questions show understanding as the show unfolds.

  3. 03

    Teacher feedback

    Feedback forms capture participation, content relevance and engagement.

  4. 04

    Reflection & report

    Guided reflection plus a learning-outcome summary for the school after every programme.

FAQ

Questions schools ask us

Something else? Ask us directly — we reply quickly.

What exactly is Manthan?

Manthan is a live, interactive science show designed by a team of educators from IITs and NITs. It makes Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and Biology come alive through real experiments and engaging demonstrations, so students can see, feel and understand science in action.

Which grades is it suitable for?

We run age-appropriate formats for Grades 6–8, 9–10 and 11–12, and every demonstration links to NCERT / CBSE topics.

How is this different from robotics or coding shows?

Robotics and coding shows focus on pre-built devices or digital skills. Manthan focuses on fundamental science, the “why” behind everything. It is concept-driven, cross-disciplinary, highly interactive and designed by real educators.

Is it just edutainment? How do you measure learning?

No. We use pre- and post-show questionnaires, live polls and Q&A, teacher feedback forms and observation-based assessment, where students explain what they saw and why. Schools receive a learning-outcome summary afterwards.

What space and setup do you need?

Our setup is portable and stage-friendly. It works in a classroom, an auditorium or an open ground. We bring the equipment, materials and safety gear.

Is it safe?

Yes. All experiments are handled by trained professionals using certified lab materials. High-voltage and cryogenic setups are performed behind safety barriers, and all equipment is tested and school-compliant.

How much does it cost?

Pricing depends on the number of students, the grade levels involved and the venue setup. Annual and multi-show packages are available at discounted rates. Request a quote and we'll tailor a plan for your school.
