The evening witnessed a gathering of Goa’s elite - from politicians to business barons to friends and well wishers - to share in the cheer and joy of the magazine.
One of India’s best stand-up comedians Sourabh Pant entertained the guests with his witty humour during his performance. In his welcome address, VIVA GOA editor Kedar Dhume narrated his experience of interviewing Sachin Tendulkar at the cricketers palacial home in Mumbai.
