To make the reunion party really fun, ask your batchmate and your ex-National Leader to come dressed as their favorite Bollywood star! If they don't have a favorite, ask them to come dressed in Indian costume anyway.
Why Bollywood?
For the uninitiated, Bollywood is India's equivalent of Hollywood. The only difference is it churns out lots more movies than Hollywood every year and they're all in Hindi! The 'B' in Bollywood is for Bombay (which is what Mumbai used to be called), the home of Bollywood!

In India, just like its western counterpart, Bollywood sets trends and its actors are greatly idolized. Bollywood is perceived as all colorful, musical extravaganzas and melodrama. This too is only true some of the time as Bollywood is also home to some very well made, thought-provoking and true-to-life (well at least Indian life) cinema.
So, back to our party planning. Here's how you can replicate 100% unadulterated Bollywood magic in your home! As with everything, it's all in the planning! Plan ahead and you'll save yourself heaps of time and stress.
Registration Opens
Please note that this might be the LAST time you board our much-loved Nippon Maru, as this will be the final year the Nippon Maru is used for the SSEAYP .
