Rekha made a grand entrance on the red carpet, literally wrapped in a brilliant golden saree, before a life-size poster of Raj Kapoor.

Agastya, it should be noted, has a direct relationship with the Kapoor clan, since his paternal grandmother, Ritu Nanda, happened to be a daughter of the legendary Raj Kapoor. The reason for this relationship is that Shweta Bachchan Nanda, daughter of Amitabh Bachchan, is married to Nikhil Nanda, son of Ritu Nanda. Although, the others of the Bachchan family would have missed the do.
