What
if
you
get
a
host
to
be
one
of
the
most
gorgeous
female
celebrities
at
a
film
festival?
Would
you
watch
The
Social
Network
or
her?
Minissha
Lamba
is
that
celebrity,
who
will
be
hosting
the
opening
day
of
the
MAMI
Film
Festival
at
Chandan
cinema.
Then
you
question
after
watching
her
performance
at
The
London
Film
Festival
in
the
critically
acclaimed
Well
Done
Abba.
How
could
this
naturally
gorgeous,
graceful
woman
feel
anything
other
than
totally
confident
in
herself?
For
a
change,
all
her
qualities
will
be
in
full
display.
This
special
correspondent
dials
the
number
'M'
to
find
out
more
on
what's
happening
on
the
other
side
of
the
event.
"I
am
mainly
excited
to
watch
The
Social
Network"
Minissha
Lamba
watching
The
Social
Network
is
garnering
more
attention
I
guess.
But
it's
a
hand
in
hand
situation.
One
is
not
possible
without
the
other.
It
is
because
I'm
hosting
MAMI
that
I
get
to
see
such
distinct
cinema
from
around
the
world,
The
Social
Network
being
one
of
them.
I
am
mainly
excited
about
The
Social
Network
and
because
of
my
busy
travelling
schedule;
I
didn't
want
to
miss
this
film
at
all.
"It's
love
for
cinema"
The
whole
idea
is
that
cinema
has
to
reach
out
to
the
people,
whether
it
happens
through
film
festivals
or
it
happens
through
television
or
the
DVD's.
The
mantra
isn't
rocket
science:
It's
the
love
for
cinema.
That's
the
prerogative
of
any
film
festival.
This
is
the
12th
year
of
the
MAMI
and
we
are
really
proud.
Indian
Film
Industry
is
huge
all
round
the
world
and
we're
really
happy
that
now
we
are
working
towards
making
the
festival
in
our
home
town
global.
"Films
are
coming
to
Mumbai.
That's
great"
Every
year,
a
festival
becomes
more
popular
and
gains
more
recognition
around
the
world.
All
directors
travel
to
various
cities
to
reach
out
to
their
audiences
with
their
well
made
and
hard
earned
film.
But
the
fact
that
you
are
bringing
films
to
Mumbai
where
people
out
here
have
access
to
such
kind
of
films
and
they
don't
have
to
go
to
Toronto,
France,
London,
etc.
You
can
witness
them
in
your
own
city
now.
A
movie
is
accessible
to
anyone
who
has
the
passion
to
go
and
watch
a
film.
Festival
is
meant
for
movie
lovers.
It's
a
celebration.
"MAMI
is
soon
going
to
be
in
the
category
of
Cannes,
Sundance,
etc"
As
a
movie
lover,
I'd
definitely
love
to
be
a
part
of
a
good
and
sensible
film
and
take
that
film
to
Cannes,
Sundance,
Toronto,
Berlin,
etc.
Festivals
that
are
recognised
the
world
over,
and
hopefully,
MAMI
is
very
soon
going
to
be
in
that
category.
At
the
end
of
the
day,
after
Hollywood,
it's
Bollywood
cinema
which
is
taking
over
the
world
by
storm.
