A Celebration of Indian Culture Abroad

The presence of Pooja as Guest of Honour added a Bollywood touch to this year’s celebrations. Adivi Sesh was also present at the event as a chief guest.
For Pooja, the event seemed to be more than a public appearance. Her social-media post was an emotional manifestation of how Indians came together to celebrate with one another and to realize that they shared roots while they were living abroad.
