On the clear morning of 30th October, I hopped on a plane to Mumbai for a surprise trip arranged by
Windows Phone India. I was very fortunate to be a part of this amazing event. What we expected was a small party in the evening with some celebrities, but it turned out to be a full on dhamaka event, one after another starting with Lunch.

Lets not get into any unimportant details and jump directly to the time when we met up for Lunch. We got to meet
Mr. Vineet Durani, Director - Windows Phone Business Group who was an amazing Host. He took time out of his busy schedule and met every invitee. He inquired about our group and Facebook page 'Windows Phone India Enthusiasts' and show
ed great interest.
After lunch, we had the opportunity to meet other Windows Phone Enthusiasts and people associated with Microsoft India.

A big surprise awaited us, as we were later informed that a limousine has arrived to pick us up. Yeah, you read it correctly, a grandiose limousine to take us around Mumbai for a leisure ride!
 |
Everyone in Bollywood land are stylish. |
The limo took us through the crowded roads of Mumbai with complete ease. We were lucky to have Mr. Vamsi Krishna., Director - Windows Consumer Marketing during the ride. An amazing person who at one point successfully pranked me. We had great fun and also took some amazing shots.

We returned back to the Hotel at around 18:00 and were told to rest for an hour and join everyone in the Main hall for the Halloween Party. When we entered our room, we were taken by another surprise. We found a big basket of Goodies and Windows branded T-shirts.

Well, Lumia 920s are our personal devices. |

By the time we reached the party venue, the Halloween party was in full flow. Everyone were waiting for Hrithik to join them. Suddenly, we were taken to exclusive hall where Hrithik Roshan and Kangana Ranaut would meet us. Wow! The news that we will meet Hrithik personally was a bolt from the blue.
After five minutes of wait, entered the Superstars.
After a Photo shoot and a small chat with the stars, we were asked to join the party. Hrithik joined in later with Kangana and Vivek Oberoi. The crowd went crazy on seeing them. Even the Photo journalists wanted to get the best shot. Somehow, Windows Phone India team got the crowd under control.
