As soon as the cooler winds start to blow in the city, you know it’s racing season. For years, the Mahalaxmi Race Course has been holding their derby in the afternoons starting mid January. As per custom, racing season just commenced but with a slight change. This year, taking inspiration from the races across Hong Kong, Singapore and Dubai, Zavaray Poonawala announced the beginning of Evening Racing, the first of it’s kind in India. While the horses will now run into the night, one thing didn’t change at all – The glam factor these races bring. Celebrities were dotted in their derby best on Sunday evening at the race course and we just couldn’t get enough. Here’s what we saw…
