From Praful Patel, KV Kamath to Adi and Parmeshwar Godrej, Sunil Mittal, Nandan Nilekani to the Oberois, it really was a guest-list of the crème de la crème.

And while the first night saw SRK and Karan Johar do an enactment of Karan's famous talk-show with Juhi Chawla getting on stage too, the second night saw things move to the serious with journalist Barkha Dutt talking to an elite panel.

And as if this wasn't enough glamour already, Kareena and Katrina made the event all the starrier, with Vinod Khanna, Rahul Khanna and Dia Mirza present as well. "Shah Rukh is the nicest and wittiest of people," revealed Pinky Reddy of Hyderabad, "When I asked him a question and the person with the microphone couldn't spot me, he said, 'Arre wahan, airport ke bagal mein ,' referring to Sanjay" (Sanjay, Pinky's husband is Vice Chairman, GVK)

Pinky also told us that Nita Ambani gave a beautiful Bharatnatyam performance, and that the couple of Mukesh and Nita were the nicest of hosts. And well, if you thought, that was all that happened at the do, you need to know the best part yet. All the guests, and yes, that includes all the actors and the industrialists, came together for a dandiya in the evening! Pinky was also amazed by the refinery at Jamnagar, saying, "It looks like Manhattan!"

It is learnt that SRK left by midnight to go to Mumbai to pick up his family and head off to Austria.
