Deepika Padukone and Rizwan Sajan at the launch of Filmfare Middle East

Over the years Bollywood has become a melting pot of different ethnicities, cultures and traditions with fans from all over the world. Keeping in mind the rage for the Hindi film industry overseas, world renowned Danube Group re-launched Filmfare’s Arab issue last year.

Deepika Padukone, Karan Johar and several others were present for the popular magazine’s launch in the Middle East in March 2018. In order to celebrate a successful first year, the group is hosting a glittering event at the Shangri La Barr al jissah in Muscat on 29th March, 2019. The bash is expected to have an air of class, luxury, panache and some truly spectacular moments commemorated by the likes of Sonam Kapoor Ahuja, Swara Bhaskar, Tabu, Rajkumar Rao, Jim Sarbh, Ali Quli Mirza, Ishaan Khatter and Janhvi Kapoor and many others.

Omani singer Haitham Mohammed Rafi will be opening the evening, followed by power-packed performances by Nora Fatehi, Sukriti and Prakriti Kakkar, Bappi Lahiri, Kubbra Sait, Aman Verma and DJ Scorpio.

Speaking about the magazine’s huge success, Rizwan Sajan, Founder and the Chairman of Danube Group said:

After breaking the record of 1.3 billion dollars’ turnover in 2018, we have been growing ever since and we credit this success to our fans and fraternity across the world. Our only strategy is reaching to the right people and keeping our engagement simple. We are thrilled to be associated with one of the biggest industries in the world which reaches out to audience across borders and ethnicity.

From a small trading firm, Danube has grown into one of the largest building materials company in the region with branches worldwide, including UAE, Oman, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and India. We are looking forward to this starry launch party.
