It was a confluence of littérateurs and several prominent personalities from the city, including industrialists and Bollywood actors. And why wouldn't it be! The event was hosted by actor and now BJP MP Vinod Khanna to mark the reading of Congress MP and Union Minister of Science and Technology, Kapil Sibal's recently released book of poems titled I Witness.

While Sibal's poems were rendition of interesting topics that Indian society is currently talking about — advancements in technology, the youth etc, the event was especially a tribute to Gulzarsaab, who has become the toast of the country after recently winning an Oscar.

While the event itself commenced with the musical score Jai Ho, indicating there was something more coming up on those lines, Sibal surprised the Oscar winner with a special poem written and dedicated to this man's achievements. As the audience listened enthralled to excerpts from the poem, Gulzar did not let an ounce of humility slip as he accepted a framed copy of the Hindi verse penned by Sibal, aptly titled Jai Ho, as a memento.
