Over 1000 women rallied at the Bandra Reclamation Grounds to Lavasa via the Mumbai _ Pune Express Highaway. Akshay Kumar, flagged off the event with Housefull co-star Deepika Padukone along with Adhuna Akhtar. Waiting at Lavasa to greet the participants was actor Dia Mirza who flew down to the venue in a helicopter.
With three to four women in every car,the barrage of participants and vehicles seemed endless. If these women thought the party ended with the rally at Lavasa, they were surprised to find a host of activities waiting for them at the arrival venue. Along with lip-smacking food and golas welcoming the women at the entrance, volunteers were waiting for the participants to help them tie orange pagdis on their heads.
As a variety of activities kept the women engaged at Lavasa, the most awaited event was a live performance by the Band of Boys. Chintu Bhonsle along with his band members performed for over an hour on popular demand.
While women were the star attractions of the day, adding to the splendour were celebrity appearances by Rahul Bose, Luke Kenny, Dino Morea, Raageshwari, Tisca Chopra, Ila and Ishita Arun and others.
