New Year event organisers will have to do with TV actors and Bollywood starlets as most of the A-lister have taken off on personal trips to ring in 2016
Event organisers across the country have been competing with each other to dish up the best before revellers as the New Year dawns. However, unlike previous years, hardly any A-lister will perform at year-end bashes — most big names have taken off on personal trips to ring in 2016.

So, now, the organisers are having to content themselves with television actors or Bollywood starlets. Some have managed to rope in well known singers to take the stage, but the celeb quotient for this New Year's Eve parties remains rather lacklustre. An event co-coordinator says, "B-Town faces are always in demand for festive bashes in smaller cities and overseas, but this year, the celebrity line-up is not so attractive."
