PIX: INSIDE Mukesh Ambani's party for Bollywood

Mukesh Ambani's party for designer duo Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla's book launch saw a record turnout from Bollywood.

While everybody from the Bachchans to the Roshans was present to lend their support, Saif Ali Khan's daughter Sara (extreme left) -- one of the people who feature in the book -- made her fashionable debut for the filmi set.

She led a bevy of models at the show, walking down the ramp -- and the spectacular Ambani stairway -- in the duo's creations.

Here's looking at what else happened inside the Ambanis' home, Antilla, where the party took place.

The star kid looked all grown up in an intricate multi-coloured lehenga as she walked down the stairs.

There were reports of her being flooded with movie offers when she made it to the cover of Hello magazine along with mum Amrita Singh a while ago. Quite a long way from this little girl.

All the star guests who modelled the designer clothes appeared on the stage.

The Bachchans, one of the most loyal patrons of Anu Jani and Sandeep Khosla, were present to lend support to their favourite designers.

Abhishek Bachchan, however, could not make it as he is currently in Chicago, shooting for Dhoom 3.
