Some play play in India

This Sunday was an eventful one; after the Derby, I went to see a play for the first time in India. 'Broken Images,' a one-women production starring renowned Bollywood actress and social activist Shabana Azmi was short (~1 hr), but sweet (well-worth the entry price of ~$30).

Outside of the play itself, the most interesting part of the experience was the celebrity sighting. Not sure if this was b/c it was in a smaller, more expensive venue (for Bombay) or that it was one of the last nights of the play, but the theatre was full of B-list celebrities from smaller movie stars and TV stars to businessmen and socialites.

My favorite socialite that I run into from time to time is the extremely gay but extremely married Yash Birla (scion of the famous Birla family of India). I don't actually know him but he it's fun/funny to watch him dress up for the paparazzi. See below; if there were any doubts, that is his wife.
