The Times of India Film Awards (TOIFA) paid a visit to a kids’ care home over the weekend as the Bollywood extravaganza took over Vancouver.
Premier Christy Clark and Bollywood choreographer Shiamak Davar dropped by Canuck Place with a group of dancers to entertain residents at the children’s hospice Saturday afternoon, ahead of a massive awards show at BC Place Stadium.
“These guys are all about live for the moment,” Clark said of the dancers in a YouTube video.
“The great thing about it is the intercultural connection, and these kids, sometimes they’re experiencing a lot of sadness in their lives, Shiamak was here to bring them some joy, do some good.”
Kids got to watch the dancers perform a kind of preview of what Vancouver would see later that evening, and were even invited to come up and participate.
