Story Tellers Club was founded in 2020, when the Covid-19 pandemic prompted people all over the world to turn to online platforms for entertainment. A group of young people had the brilliant idea of creating an initiative wherein stories would be told. The club started with a small number of members and has grown exponentially since then, with its members spanning multiple countries and continents. They have since developed an online community where people can listen to their stories and continue to take part in different activities within the club.
The Story Tellers Club’s online session, named Oru Kadha Sollatuma, quickly attracted the attention of Malayalis all over the world. Over time, these sessions gained more and more traction, with over 22 sessions had been conducted and thousands of audience participating.

It can provide the tools needed to help speakers craft engaging, humorous, and memorable stories.
Overall, the program provides a way to increase audience engagement and make presentations more enjoyable for everyone involved.
