Fusion Confusion Review

Hi everyone!

After a loooong time of preparation and loads of efforts our Fusion Confusion 2008 Diwali Ball was ready to rock!

We had a great evening full of dances, plays, performances and loads of comedy! Did you miss it? Then this post is for you :) A full review of a great and unforgettable night!

Don't forget that if you want to see Fusion Confusion again and again, you only have to buy the DVDs of the Gala which you can collect at ICC between 7 and 9 pm any day :D

What was Fusion Confusion meant to be? Why did we choose this name? Well, as you all so, Fusion Confusion was all about mixing and remixing, remembering good old days and enjoying with dhamakedar new rhythms... Same actor/actress, same theme, same mood... but one new song and one old one... Isn't it promising?

Now, after preparing you for whats coming up, the show must begin! Cameras, Lights, Action!!

"Om Jai Laxmi Mata..." As all our blog's followers know, Diwali is a day to pray Goddess Laxmi, so that's how Sunday evening started... Neha, Natasha, Jenny, Bhavna, Dhristi & Chandini all of them choreographed by Sanya gave us the perfect start for a perfect evening :)

Next came our chintoo-mintoos ;) Priti & Muskan did a great job putting together this Around India Fashion Show, with baby Sikhs Abhishek & Udit, baby Maharathis Hitesh & Krish, baby South Indians Chiraag & Janvi and baby Bengoli dolls Drishti & Bhipasha.

Then we had some Angalika Mangalika Jadoo performed by our kiddos Juhi, Tania, Aditya, Sneha, Ishan & Akash thanx to their teacher Nisha.

After all this dancing we enjoyed with the Play of the night. Sweta & Sonu directed, Sonali, Kushi, Kirti, Dimpel & Roshni bringing us a great story about Diwali with a little comedy in it :D

If I say "Rang Bharse", what's the next thing that comes to your mind?? HOLI!!! That was the first fused and Confused theme... Nitu was able to make Eshika, Kashish, Harsh, Vishal, Aryan, Pranay, Phalak & Anjali fill the evening with colors and masti!

Hritikh and Rakesh, Akshay and Vinod, Dharmendar and Sunny, Abhishek and Amitabh, Feroz and Fardeen, Suresh and Vivek... Two generations of Bollywood actors with the bond of father and son... Guess one that's missing? Rishi and Raanvir Kapoor!! And Eshna, Rohan, Rishi, Anushka, Khrisha & Jaiom, choreographed by Namrata, made this possible.

Isn't it really very bad that when you have a "Haseena Zulfo Wali" the only thing your friends tell her is "Papu can't dance sala"? Pratik, Purab, Barkha, Ashwin & Gargi know that and if it hadn't been for their faboulous dance, we wouldn't have known ever ;)

One thing couldn't miss this evening... Boy falls in love with girl; girl has to marry someone else; boy promises to take her with him ;) Any two song in mind? Well Kiran, Swati, Manav, Kusum, Saurabh, Sahil, Gayatri & Ruchika thought of "Tenu Leke" & the always heart filling "Mehndi Laga ke Rakhna"

Have you ever fallen in love? Sometimes you fall in love, but don't realize until you here one of these songs... It all depends on your generation ;) On one hand, we have Karishma Kapoor telling us her heart was stolen suddenly and on the other we have Amritao Rao feeling the wind changing around her... Sanya did a lovely coreography with Vanshika, Devisha, Heena & Kareena making us all feel that "Love is in the air"


Seeing all this fantastic night, Munna Bhai told us: "Kya mamu... Apun ko bhi yahaa participate karne ko mangta he. Apun bhi jhakaas latke jatke mar sakta he. " So Kushboo, Mohit, Goldie, Hitesh, Tarun & Simran got together and did a Rapchik Tapori fusion confusion item ;)

And before a more than needed break, Rima choreographed Jayesh, Disha, Deva, Deepali, Sonali, Mohit Sonia, Chavek & Vivek and made us "move our body" and go for some samosa-pakora singing out loud "Moja Moja"

After our first break we started with loads of comedy thanx to our policemen Sonu & Dheeraj... And after the first laughter fit we were able to enjoye with Muskan and her wonderful Guitar Concert.

International beauty, not only Bollywod actress but even starring in films in Hollywood... Our new Pink Panther Aishwarya Rai has offered us great songs and Roshni, Pooja and Sonia thrilled us with these rhythms!

From one beauty to another one... And she's really confused us on Sunday... First, she tells us to "Just Chill Chill" but then, she makes us Race around... Vidhi made Karuna, Janam, Sonia, Priyal, Mahima & Shriya rock with Katrina Kaif's songs

And we all know that there is no two, without a three and to comply with that we enjoyed two fused songs of the dashing Bipasha Basu thanx to Meenakshi, Deepika, Roshni, Riya & Dipti.

After all this flabbergasting performances, we needed something a bit more calm... Kushi pleased our ears with a wonderful Piano Performance. Well done!

Disha, Monica, Romina, Natasha, Juhi & Barkha made us shake our bodies with two songs from two all time divas: Parveen Babi & Shushmita Sen with Javani Janeman & Mehboob Mere

Obviusly, we couldn't forget Bollywood's favourite all time dancer... Madhuri Dixit, a woman, that even beeing in her 40s she can't stop telling us to "Aaja Nachle" with her! Deepali, Neha, Kirti, Ayesha & Gina invited all of us to dance with them with the guideance of Sonia

Does anyone of you know who is the Cutest Vegetarian in a poll conducted by PETA?? Of course it is the bombshell, Kareena Kapoor with whose song Milan, Shriya, Bhavika, Nishika, Muskan Sharina & Melissa coordinated by Kavita made our man and ton go dole, dole ;)

Remix, remix, remix... What would the new generations do without the Great Remixes of the all time classics? Suraj, Anmol, Sneha, Navin, Vishal & Jayesh realized it, and wanted to share it with all of us

Hot, sexy, handsome... Khiladhyon ka Khiladi Akshay Kumar!! Vidhi & Neetu taught Krish, Viren, Akshay, Vicky, Tanith, Rohit, Karan & Arun to give the kicks and moves of Bollywood's greatest Khiladi :D

Jab We Met there was some kind of Kismat Konnection... Did you feel it? Well, Shahid Kapoor did and so did Eshna, Aanchal, Rahul, Vinay, Kushi, Krishi, Rahul, Jashan & Rahul with the hel of their choreographer Namrata

Big surprise for all of us was when our great anchors prepared a special remix... Rahul, Sonia, Badal & Shilpa did some awesome movements!!

And who’s the hottest girl in the world? Our Desi Mums!! Not only the hottest, but the most hard working, all the mamas that made this night possible... Decoration, gift packing, selling the tickets, welcoming to the event, coordinating kids, preparing rehearsals, sitting arrangements are just some of the things that our Desi Mums had to do: Conchi, Kiran, Harsha, Karishma, Nitu, Sneha (Kavita), Gayna, Nutan, Muskan, Karina, Prerna, Sara, Vidhi, Raksha, Rima, Jyoti, Sita, Namrata, Pooja, Manju, Priti, Priya, Manju, Mehak, Sanya, Laveena, Honey, Sita, Manju, Jhoti, Resham, Manju Lazor, Kiran, Kanchan, Shalu, Rima, Nami, Dani, Jyoti & many more...


A special mention goes to our DJ for the night DJ Sara; Lights Man, Amit; Camera man, Digital Express; Foto men, Rajesh & Jagdish; Our Anchors Rahul, Sonia, Jashan & Shilpa; Curtain men, Jeetu & Rakesh; our comedians Sonu & Dheeraj and of course, the Ayuntamiento de Adeje


And last, but most important... We would like to thank the great audience we had that night... You were all FANTABULOUS!!!

THANK YOU to each and every person mentioned in this post because without you all, this great night wouldn't have been possible!

Sunday 9th November 2008 was a unique night, a night that will stay in our hearts, minds and eyes as the night that we could find Taare Zameen Par, our little start in our little Adeje...

Our Second Yoga Class

Dear Friends ... for all those of you who missed out on our Yoga Class in February, here we have a review of it by one of our students:

About Our Yoga Class... By Disha P. Bhatia, 7 Years

In Our Yoga Class we learnt to behave like a tree... stretching high up. We also learnt in our yoga that before you lie down on your back you turn on your right or your left then lie down on your back. We also learnt that when you do your homework you put your back straight. We also learnt sitting like a butterfly, flapping our knees. That's what we learnt in our yoga class!

Thanks Disha! That is a lovely review... and hope it encourages many others to come and learn so many things Auntie Priya has in store for us.

Do Join us in our next class on Friday 7th March at 18:30 Sharp and for extra details check out our calender at:

PIT review

"My Trip to PIT.- By Kushi J Bhatia. Age 9

On Wednesday 2nd of January 08, the ICC Kids Camp arranged for a bus to go to PIT (Parque Infantil Tenerife), held in Santacruz. All those who were going on this trip were supposed to meet outside ICC. My brother and I, along with all our friends gathered there ,very excited... waiting for 15 minutes before the bus and people came. Before boarding the bus, each person had to tell the organizer Aunty what menu they wanted from Mc Donald's for the evening snack. We then entered the bus. It took an hour to reach Santa Cruz.

We were so thrilled to enter the PIT. There were all kinds of rides: faster rides,slow rides,rides for all ages, many for younger children but I noticed that the quantity of rides had become lesser from the previous years. I still had lots of fun. The ride I liked the most was called "Master", it would go round and round and up and down,and it was fast. There was a puppet theater show which I walked out from , in 10 minutes because it was a bit boring.

Finally,everyone had to gather at the entrance to leave the PIT feeling sad that the day had come to an end... but happy that we had so much fun. We boarded the bus that took us to McDonalds which was in front of PIT. After finishing our snack we boarded the bus again and were dropped to Pineda.

I loved it! I always wish PIT is open for the entire year but its only open during the Xmas holidays.

I would like to thank the ICC Kids Camp group for organizing this wonderful trip to PIT.

Khushi J Bhatia"

Have a look at the kids having fun clicking here... I wasn't there, but it really looks the enjoyed!!

Taare Zameen par

Woh what a evening! Great movie with chips, chocolate and juices!

Even after such a short notice to all of our friends, we had a super response from you all. We were more than 50 of us watching this super duper movie: Taare Zameen Par, a film by Aamir Khan.

The movie revolves around Ishaan...
Ishaan Awasthi is an eight-year-old whose world is filled with wonders that no one else seems to appreciate; colours, fish, dogs and kites are just not important in the world of adults, who are much more interested in things like homework, marks and neatness. And Ishaan just cannot seem to get anything right in class. When he gets into far more trouble than his parents can handle, he is packed off to a boarding school to 'be disciplined'. Things are no different at his new school, and Ishaan has to contend with the added trauma of separation from his family. One day a new art teacher bursts onto the scene, Ram Shankar Nikumbh, who infects the students with joy and optimism. He breaks all the rules of 'how things are done' by asking them to think, dream and imagine, and all the children respond with enthusiasm, all except Ishaan. Nikumbh soon realizes that Ishaan is very unhappy, and he sets out to discover why. With time, patience and care, he ultimately helps Ishaan find himself

Thanks to all of you! See you all in our next event, till then, take care, namaste, ciao!!!

Our visit to the Old Age Home

On the 24th December at 11´30 we were a group of 12 of us to visit the Old Age home, Residencia y Centro de día "Jose almeida Gonzalez", in Adeje.

Kids were a bit nervous as to what they had to actually do, and we were a bit nervous as to how the kids would react on their first visit, but off course, the elders welcomed us all so warmly that we all instantly forgot our nervousness, and soon got into the mood.

We all started singing and dancing with all of the elders with the help of the nurses and the director of the centre who even played the guitar for our carols.

We then gave all the elders a gift donated by an anonymous person, and wished them all individually a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

It was an hour of great fun and a new experience for all. They even invited us all for some refreshments and snacks.

It was a super experience, specially to bring a smile on their faces on such a special day for all.!

On behalf of ICC Kids Camp we would like to sincerely thanks Mr. Kan Mirpuri for this lovely event idea and organization. We will always be with you. Thanks!

We hope to make trips like this more often if you all would like... Do you have any new ideas? What do you think of the events that have already taken place? Do leave your comments by clicking under :-D

The ICC Kids Camp Xmas Party

The 3 Kings, Melchor,Gaspar, Baltasar and Santa, visited the ICC in Pineda... Not just the kids, even their parents had great fun and were queuing up to take snaps with the Kings.

Who doesn't want to be a kid again? It's so much fun, so much of joy, so much of freedom...

ICC Kids Camp celebrated, one of the celebration day in Spain and the children got to see and take snaps with their gift bringers: Los Reyes Magos!!!

Today the 6th Jan, when the whole of Spain is running around like mad to exchange gifts between themselves... Don't you feel one of them? Isn't it a beautiful tradition that gifts are exchanged, not only between the kids but also between the elders?

Maybe for some its just a day of Reyes, maybe for some its just a day of tradition, maybe for some its just a day of expenditure... but see the brighter side of it: it gets you closer to people, it gets you closer to your friends, your family, your near ones....

On behalf of the Kids & Mothers of the ICC Kids Camp...

¡¡¡FELICES REYES!!!

We sincerely hope that the Kings do bring you lots and lots of gifts from ur family and friends...
