IFFI 2004: Goa, Day 5

A party thrown to launch director Samir Gupta’s East India Production Company saw Bollywood stars mingle with Delhi’s top bureaucrats on Day Four of the 35th International Film Festival of India.

Belly dancers, Samba dancer draped in the Brazillian flag, fire dancers … they all set the mood for the evening.

While actors Pooja Bedi and Gul Panag had a hard time trying to keep cameras off them, Kabir Bedi was stopped repeatedly for autographs. Karan Johar chatted up Bollywood’s contingent while Dev Benegal and Atul Kulkarni gave interviews. Manisha Koirala made a late entry.
