‘Pak’ed with fun!

doweshowbellyad=0; Mukul Dev (TOI Photo)This was a special evening for both Bollywood and Pakistani cinema, for after a gap of 40 years, a Pakistani film is being released in India.
The special show of this film starring Pakistani and Indian actors and actresses saw a clusterful of stars attend. And just so that the guests from across the border feel at home, this suburban theatre took the extra effort of dressing up their ushers in traditional Pakistani outfits.
Guests arrived on time (surprisingly).Naseeruddin Shah, who stars in the film, arrived early; he was soon joined by Rasheed Naaz. The two women of the film "Austin Marie Sayre and Pakistani star Iman Ali " enjoyed their moment in the Bollywood limelight, sticking to one another throughout the evening. Pakistani actor Javed Sheikh made his presence felt as well. Subhash Ghai came with wife Rehana; he was seen chatting with Madhur Bhandarkar, Naseer and Rashid. Shyam and Balkrishna Shroff arrived together. Mugdha Godse was heard talking about the hectic, just-concluded fashion week. Others present included Mita Vashisht, Mukesh Bhatt, Rajit Kapoor, Shaad Randhawa, Sameer Dattani and the telly gang of Shama Sikander, Gaurav Chopra and Narayani Shastri.
