CHANDIGARH, Dec 27: How well do you know your city? Well, a Chandigarhian8217;s knowledge of the city beautiful was put to test by a local film maker Sunil Babbar with the shows of his documentary film on the city, titled Chandigarh-The City Beautiful8217;.

The 50th open show of the film was screened today at the Sukhna lake brightening the dull, foggy winter weather over the city. Among those present were the mayor of the city Kewal Krishan Adiwal and the creator of the rock garden, Nek Chand.

An open contest was held by the film maker in which the names of the participants were selected by a draw. The participants had to answer the questions based on the city.

quot;The 43 minute long film unfolds Chandigarh as it was originally conceived by its architect Le Corbusier as an imaginary human form,quot; cited Sunil Babbar the man and the brain behind the open public screening of the film.

Later the results of the contest were declared. Anil Kaushik, Ravinder, Pankaj, Bhupinderpal Singh and Jagdeep Kaur walked away with prizes for knowing their city well.
