MissMalini Says: What a fabulous night with Mumbai’s Bollywood glitterati, thank you Chivas Studio & Kwan! Deepika Padukone looked stunning up close and personal and both Abhay Deol and Ranbir Kapoor were total sweethearts *sigh* Malaika Arora Khan and I also shared a giggle about going to the same gym, fun fun! 🙂 xoxo
The lawns of the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Mumbai and also China House (the well-known celebrity watering-hole) were choc-a-bloc with Bollywood stars and fashionable celebrities as far as the eye could see. They were there to celebrate the second anniversary party of Kwan and also enjoy the Chivas Studio Spotlight which was an eclectic amalgamation of fashion, art, mixology, gourmet food and music.
