Cine stars gave it a miss but the opening ceremony of the Commonwealth Games had its Bollywood moment with AR Rahman's 'Chaiya Chaiya' enthralling the audience during the 'Great Indian journey' segment of the event here tonight.
The journey, a programme organised by the Indian Railways, started with a makeshift train chugging across the stadium with dancers and people from all walk of life thronging the roof, singing and celebrating the true spirit of the Games.
As the 'Dil se' song played at the background, audience burst into a loud cheer. With the real stars missing, giant cutouts of Bollywood superstars such as Amitabh Bachchan, Aamir Khan and Shahrukh Khan were put up for display at the train.
'Dholi Taro', a song from 'Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam', could also be heard at the background.
