Waitakere goes Bollywood

Waitakere goes Bollywood
The Waitakere National Party celebrated Indian independence day with a Bollywood experience. The venue resembled a club you would see in the high streets of Mumbai.

Men and women of many races dressed in authentic Indian clothing. The bar was serving India’s favourite Kingfisher beer and for a dinner there was a buffet of quality Indian cuisine. 

The night had many speakers including Anil Thapliyal who spoke on Indian independence, Manoj Tahal the president of Waitakere Indian Association and the honourable Paula Bennett MP for Waitakere also spoke on the historic occasion of the 62nd Indian independence.

Henna hand painting was happening and while dinner was served large screens showed the critically acclaimed Slumdog Millionaire.

The evening was a success with everyone enjoying themselves and to see the Minister of Social Development the honourable Paula Bennett celebrating this occasion hand in hand with Indians and many other races was a humbling thought and a step forward for NZ-Indian relations.
