Celebs chill out at IFFI 2007

Panaji, Nov 28 (IANS) Celebrities are having a great time at the 38th International Film Festival of India (IFFI) here and say the ambience this year is more peaceful and relaxed.

'It is important that when you come to see the international film fest, you get easy entry, you are not being pushed around and you get to interact with actors and scriptwriters. This is my third IFFI and there is a certain calm here which is worth enjoying and gives me time to enjoy and absorb international cinema,' said Nafisa Ali who is enjoying the festival with her mother.

Apart from her, TV actress Kavita Chaudhary who is also in the jury panel, directors M.S. Sathyu and Sudhir Mishra and many others were seen either hopping from one food stall to the other, walking to and fro from auditoriums, or catching up with friends.

'Luckily, I'm not Shah Rukh Khan, he was mobbed so badly. I feel so bad for him. People forget that actors are just ordinary human beings at the end of the day and they also need to enjoy the ambience which was very tough for him,' Nafisa added.
