Star
TV invited our young patients to the sets of their popular game show
'Kaun Banega Crorepati'. These 15 kids had the most eventful day with a
memorable rendezvous with the "King" Shahrukh Khan himself. They
presented him with a specially made canvas urging him to quit smoking,
while singing his favourite song 'Kal ho na ho...'. An emotional Shahrukh
promised the kids that he would try to quit. They were then invited to see
the filming of the day's episode and presented with gifts from Star TV.
The episode is to be telecast on 26th March 2007 at 9:00 p.m |

On
the eve of Valentine's Day CPAA, organized a candle light dinner party for
couples where with either spouse was afflicted with cancer. They were
given an opportunity express their love and concern towards each
other...something that they had forgotten to during the course of their
illness and treatment. The venue for this evening was the Orchid City
Center. The couples had a wonderful time, dancing to the latest Bollywood
tunes and were entertained by a group called 'Youth for People'. Well
known celebrities like Dino Morea, Esha Deol, Anjana Sukhani made the day
even more memorable by their presence. Take away gifts were given by Big
