December 29, 2010 (Sampurn Wire): The Candolim beach in Goa has turned musical destination since last two days as Asias leading electronic music festival Sunburn 2010 started there on December 27. Today is the concluding day of this musical extravaganza.
The event heated up the party scene for the New Year festivities in this beach heaven of India. Percept Ltd. organized the grand musical festival, which has attracted around 18000 music lovers. The ticket for the three days was priced at Rs 4,000 but that did not lower the enthusiasm of the youths, who lined up to get the tickets.
Presence of Bollywood stars like Anil Kapoor, Arjun Rampal, Neha Dhupia and Ravina Tandan added to the glamour quotient of the festival. But, smokers did not spare the musical event and police had to fine around 100 of them even on the first day in the venue. The organizers had to dedicate a separate area for the smokers.
On the opening day, the crowd was entertained by the performances of DJs like Ned Shephard, Sultan, Ajit and Sashanti. Anushka Manchanda, the former MTV VJ also made her presence felt on the occasion.
Three separate stages were set up at the Candolim beach to pull the crowd to enjoy the electronic music played by 60 DJs. The entire festival can be enjoyed online through the MTV and VH1 channels' websites.
