Though the skies opened up an hour before the IPL show was to start at the Salt Lake stadium on Tuesday, everything went fine except that the show got off to a late start. The show opened with a chorus of Rabindra-sangeet with dance by local performers in traditional red-bordered white saris swaying to the soft music. Then followed the Bollywood bonanza with performances by Shahid Kapoor, Anushka Sharma, Farhan Akhtar and finally by Hrithik Roshan. But among them, Hrithik stole the show. Saif Ali Khan acted perfectly as the host. The two and half hour show was a grand success.
