Bell Bajao strikes aamchi Mumbai
Video van
The Video Van arrives in Mumbai !!
Amid huge expectations and loads of anticipation,the video van arrived in Mumbai yesterday after weeks of anxiety and stress!
Urvashi and I did 99 rounds of the Police Station in 3 days..from Traffic Police to the Commissioner of Mumbai… Charlie’s Angels left no stone unturned! ( Ojasvi included too )
Weeks of sweat and dehydration finally bore fruit when we saw the the video van yesterday! It was fabulous! Ojasvi couldn’t hide her smiles!
The Press conference gave everyone the jitters since there was major events rocking Mumbai last evening..But like Sonali calmed my nerves.”there is very little you can do when some things are beyond your control”..Sonali’s philosophy really works for me… after all we all can’t panic together!
Mallika took the mike and things were “Santana smooth” post..The ads drew a great applause and so did the Swarathma video!
I couldn’t believe I was there in Puttur plugging wires when the video was shot!
After the customary photo-ops and pleasantries the conference got into super serious mode with the members of the media posing some serious questions about the PWDVA…Shakeel and I were getting restless and the question and answer session over shot the time limit we had anticipated…
Sheriff of Mumbai and Veteran Theatre personality Mahabanoo Kotwal graced our inauguration and the ladies had a great time chatting and bonding.
The MAVA volunteers also seemed very kicked about the whole process and seemed excited to hit the road!
Mumbai is sure going to be buzzing with “Bell Bajao”..watch this space!
