Fiji Best Place In The World, Says Bollywood Entertainer
Vishwajeet Borwankar, a Bollywood vocalist, has piled praises on the Fijian hospitality.
He made the comment in Labasa last Saturday.
“I had the most marvelous time of my life and I feel fortunate to be in Fiji which is known as the best place in the world,” Mr Borwankar said.
He is from Mumbai, Maharashtra State in India.
He was in Labasa with Chirag Wadhwani, an Indian celebrity comedian, and Usha Nadkarni known as Savita Tai in the Indian television serial Pavitra Rishta which is shown on FBC TV.
They conducted a one-night show at Subrail Park in Labasa last Saturday.
He was amazed and pleased to know the people in Fiji have so much love for Bollywood.
“People in Fiji know our names very well and we felt that they hold us special place in their life.
“The place, people and the food are amazing.
“I was astonished by the way they eat chicken curry and rice and we experienced their style of eating too.
“We eat a lot of spicy food in India which the people here do not, but we managed to modify our meal and enjoyed every bit of Fijian lifestyle experience.
“Their love and response which I, as a feedback, have made me realise that I have managed to set my music footprint in Fiji.
“I will always cherish these memories and hope to come back for more shows in Fiji.”
Meanwhile, Mr Wadhwani, a famous character on Laugh India Laugh, a stand-up comedy in India, was delighted to be in Fiji for the second time.
“Fiji has given a special identity and wherever I go to perform, they always give me good response,” Mr Wadhwani said.
“It could be partially because of my hair, but I believe they love my comedy.
“My advice to youngsters, who wish to be like me or aspire to become a comedian, is that your life and body should be filled with joy. Your life and your mind should not be in tension. Always be happy and enjoy your life.”
He cracked a joke saying “If you take tension then your wife in white sari will go and take your pension.”
The trio returns to India tomorrow.
