Article 'Going Wild' ekta bash!

Ekta Kapoor needs no reason to throw a party. But on 31 October, she plans a cards session for all her cast and crews at her Juhu bungalow. Few will be there for some serious gambling, while others who don't have any clue about it will be there just to make an appearance!

Riya V. Anandwala spoke to these Balaji stars.

Shabbir Ahluwalia: Yes, I am definitely going to be there.I don't really gamble, but it's only on Diwali that I play cards. I will be garbed in Indian wear, probably a kurta. I am going there specially to play cards. I don't know about winning today, but from past three years I have been losing consecutively.

Riva Bubber:Hmmm…I am not sure! I don't really play cards actually. If I go, it will be for a short while. Otherwise, I prefer staying at home, as its Diwali.

Tina Parakh: Yes! I will be going tonight and I am planning to slip on something Indian as its Diwali. I don't play cards at all, I am just going there to catch up with my friends. Ekta's parties are definitely fun oriented, so even if I can't spend much time there, I will certainly go for a while.

Chetan Hansraj:Yeah! I am definitely going to be there. It's Ekta's party yaar, it's going to be great fun. Yes, I am going to indulge in a few card games, and win lots of money!

Ejaz Khan: Yaa! I am going to be there, without any doubt. What am I going to wear?? What I wear normally, I guess. Cards? I don't know what comes after 10! I am not going there to play cards, I am just going there to enjoy with my friends. Despite being a Muslim, I do celebrate this festival. I go to my friends' place and light diyas and all those sorts of things. This happens because I stay alone!

Neha Bamb:No! I can't go because I am unwell. I have been ordered bed rest for three days and I have not being shooting too. I do play cards, but I don't prefer playing for big stakes. Am I upset about not being able to go? No, not at all!
