Celebs put 'Behind Bars' for drinking CNN-IBN Updated 1659 hrs IST (+GMT 5:30), 07.02.06
Panaji: The New Year Eve is long over, but Goa is still the preferred party destination. Goa was the place to be last weekend as Mumbai's Page 3 descended here for the launch of two new watering holes. A quite cheekily 'Behind Bars,' the latest discotheque in south Goa, flew in some of Bollywood's well-known faces to endorse the new place. With a glitzy setting and the glasses clinking, the stars got their groove on and partied as they do only in Goa. "First option to settle down. I love Goa if I have to settle down somewhere, I will probably prefer Goa," Says Bollywood actor Arbaaz Khan. "Give some sun and sand and surf and II would love to be there," beams Malaika Arora-Khan. As for the name, 'Behind Bars' ilicited some interesting responses. "It's a great place to be locked in. There's no shortage of food and drinks. I would love to be locked in," Neha Dhupia, another Bollywood hottie said. All set to attract partygoers in Goa with the right ingriedients and Bollywood personalities already endorsing it, it seems this place wants to just keep you in custody. Meanwhile, the launch of 'On the Rocks' was one party that everyone would've loved to be a part of. Nestled amidst the shacks on Baga beach, the launch of 'On the Rocks' saw an impromptu fashion show as models-turned-Bollywood actors strutted their stuff in Goa's favourite designer Wendell Rodricks collection. So we asked the obvious question. Which is the one drink they liked one the rocks? While some were cagey, to say the least, others had no such problems. "The one drink I like on the rocks is, as boring as it sounds, paani on the rocks," says actor-model Tania Zaetta. Designer Wendell Rodricks is down-to-earth. "The one drink I like on the rocks is vodka." ON THE ROCKS, ON A HIGH: Celebs had a gala time as two new watering holes opened shop in Goa.
