Beautiful Pooja Batra was recently seen in the Big Apple at the launch of the book 'Encyclopedia of the Indian Diaspora'. The event was held at the grand ballroom of the Manhattan Centre and what's more Pooja shared the limelight in this magnificent auditorium with renowned percussionist and tabla player Ustad Zakir Hussain who performed along with fellow percussion musicians from around the world. I am sure it must have been treat for music aficionados and beauty connoisseurs!
Pooja may not be hot in the film world any more but she lent glamour to the event anyway. She along with the Indian Ambassador to the United States Honorable Ronen Sen launched the book. 'I am happy to be in my favorite city on my birthday with my favorite musician Zakir Hussain. I'm a big admirer of his and it was a delight to listen to him. It's the best birthday gift,' she gushed. We wonder what did the good humoured and reticent Zakir Hussai must have said to that'.
