THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: It was a night filled to the brim with art and glitz. The Ambika Pillai salon in the city had a special event to mark its opening that featured some splendid performances. India’s Got Talent fame Vilas Nayak, an expert in speed painting, impressed the audience completing two huge portraits in a few minutes.
While ‘Beauty of Trance’, Shobhana’s brilliant dance drama, was the highlight of the night, Rima Kallingal performed a vivacious contemporary dance number with her troupe. The dance performances were followed by a live hairstyling demo where the renowned hair stylist-makeup artist did an elaborate hairdo on her daughter Kavitha. A fitting finale to the evening, the event was wrapped up with a fashion show introducing six signature styles created by Ambika Pillai.
