The match result at Eden Gardens had set the party tone very early in the day. Considering how late the party went on till, 10.45pm was still day. Show over, the action moved to Dublin for a private party. But the place to be was the very private party within Dublin.

Lined with female fans, this boundary was tough to tackle. The super-strict bouncers in KKR jerseys made sure that no one disturbed the King as he stood, smoked and chatted with his close friends and family. Once in, you knew why. It was the closest clique possible. Gauri, dressed in a blue scarf top and ripped jeans, gave company to Sussanne K. Roshan in one section of the section. Nearby were SRK’s sister, Andrew Symonds, Arjun and Mehr Rampal. Lalit Modi floated in and out with his two bodyguards.

In the opposite section (of the section) Raima Sen hung out with Karan Paul, Ratul and Komal Sood, Aman Sondhi and Co. “It was one of the best parties Calcutta has ever seen. The spirits were high since KKR won. I had a great time,” smiled Raima, looking stunning in a LBD. The outside party was rocking too. The sun had just risen.
