Well, Opening Night was yesterday. We arrived early to try to secure our badges (which we still haven't gotten, and probably won't till the last day of the fest ;) but were shocked to see the stars that turned out.
We got to see Karan Johar, Shabana Azmi, Yash Chopra Neil Nitin Mu
kesh, Farhan Akhtar and Rani Mukherjee. It was a pretty cool opening ceremony. They had a tribute to Yash Chopra and Shashi Kapoor, both legends. As soon as that was over though, most people left and didn't watch the opening night film, which was kinda funny.
Mansi and I stayed for the Informant, directed by Steven Soderberg. It was definitely interesting, a bit different from what I was thinking it would be. I was wondering if Indian audiences would get the humor, but I did hear a few chuckles. I'm a little a
nxious to see if they'll get any of the jokes in Bollywood Beats. We'll just have to wait and see!
It was cool to see that a lot of Bollywood showed up to the fest, I think it'll just be for the opening and closing night films.
