Chief Minister of Goa Manohar Parriker and Union Minister of Information and Broadcasting Manish Tewari were also a part of the inaugural ceremonies. Legendary Kathak dancer Birju Maharaj put on a 30-minute performance right after.

Rani Mukherji was a part of the audience looking resplendent in a beige sari with lovely gold detailing on the border, and a gold blouse to match. She accessorized the outfit with a multi-chain pearl necklace, a thick gold kada and striking gold cuff earrings.
