Description

A surprise 60th birthday party. Family and friends are gathered in a room decorated with 60th birthday balloons. A DJ plays music and the party guests are recorded sending their birthday wishes. The man who the party is being held for makes his entrance and is overwhelmed by the surprise. He later cuts the cake and various family members take it in turns to feed him a bit. It is also the birthday of one of the guests at the party, he is presented with a cake and the family feed him bits of cake. Back home after the party, the daughters and niece (Sangeeta Dubb who was behind the camera at the party) of the man celebrating his 60th birthday record a birthday message. It is nearly 3am, they share a bottle of champagne and they are quite giddy.
