Bhubaneswar: More than 16,000 visitors turned up to watch the performance of well-known playback singer Shilpa Rao on the 6th day of Dot.FEST at IDCO Exhibition Ground on Friday.
TV comedian and actor Sunil Grover took Bhubaneswar denizens on a rib-tickling laughter ride impersonating superstar Amitabh Bachchan, playing his comic character ‘Guthhi’ and interacting with the live audience, while Odia singer Sashank Sekhar also took the audience on a musically enigmatic journey.
Locals and visitors continued to enjoy the delectable regional delicacies from different Indian states as well as the international cuisines from the 16 Hockey World Cup participating nations and 24 Indian states. Besides, they also enjoyed delicacies from Odisha.
The Night Bazaar/Flea Market gave local artists, start-ups, performers, craftsmen, and innovators an excellent stage to display their products. It has been organised with the intention to display the handicrafts and textiles of Odisha. With more than 120 locally made goods on display, it is proving to be a wonderful crowd-puller and a shopping experience for visitors.
Sebbe-Au-Ebbe (Then & Now), a photo exhibition that honours Bhubaneswar’s illustrious urban/city heritage and charts its transformation, remained the focal point of the occasion.
The City Trails are available to visitors until February 12 so they can fully immerse themselves in the culture and history of Bhubaneswar.
Notably, the Dot.FEST will feature the ‘Romantic Rendezvous’ theme, with notable playback singers from Bollywood performing on chart-topping romantic tracks by Amit Trivedi and Swayam Padhi on the seventh day of the festival today.
