The Start…

Colorful is the word coming to my mind thinking of the opening ceremony of the 10th cricket world cup held at the Bangabhandhu Stadium, Dhaka. Honestly, I loved the fire works. Of course, it was nothing new or not too big, but checking it out from the expectations that I had, Bangladesh has really done it well.

Sonu Nigam was at his best so as the Shankar Mahdevan with their respective performances on the stage. The 2011 world cup song moved my nerves too much. The performance named the “Magnificent India” magnificently represented the diversified culture of the world big democratic country.

Surprising to me was the way the captains were brought on to the stage by the Rickshaws. It appeared a nice and simple act that would have already touched not only the Bangladesh Junta but also the Indian proud people who usually keep many things simple.

On the whole, it was a wonderful opening ceremony experience. However, something was definitely lacking, I don’t know, but… somewhere at the back of my mind, like any other Indian, I think I too felt “Had it been in India…!”
And the Masqat “The Stumpy” is great too.
