Freida Pinto is looking great in blue... Natalie Portman is gorgeous... Anne Hathaway serene!!
The show has just begun.. it seems the year of slumdogs all the way...... and this just the beginning of the show... way to go.
I dont remember if I watched the event last year... but this year there seems a lot more personal touch at the show probably in tune with the need of the hour... with everyone needing a good hug and a warm shoulder.
