India Festival

Thursday night was the start of the India Festival here in Buenos Aires.  The Indian Embassy is sponsoring it and it includes shopping, food, and films.  But Thursday was the opening night, so there was a performance followed by a cocktail party.  We have some connections, so we got invited. :)

The performance featured singers and dancers from India, including a group from Goa.  So there was Hindi music as well as music from Goa which has a lot of Portuguese influence.  Check it out:



The cocktail party was very nice too.  Many VIPs were there including the Indian Ambassador, the deputy mayor, and some models.  Also, a friend of a friend won a trip to India!
