LIGHTS ON! SAHELI’s second annual gala will be held at Waltham Westin on Sunday, October 2, 2011 at 5 pm. This year’s event is unique as everyone attending the event is encouraged to dress up as a Bollywood/Hollywood movie star and walk the Red Carpet. Awards will be given out to Best Dressed Male/Female and Best Dressed Couple.

This will be a scintillating evening as you will be entertained by "Comedian & Host Rajiv Satyal" and will dance to the hit Bollywood tunes of our very own DJ Yogz. You will enjoy scrumptious delicacies catered by Bollywood Grill along with the chance of winning some fantastic raffles such as a one night stay at Taj Boston, Burberry handbag, Spa certificate, restaurant certificates, jewelry pieces, designer clothing and more. You will also have an opportunity to take professional photographs and caricature portraits.
