M3M hosted a mega celebrity-studded 'Rendezvous with the Stars' on 9th August 2019 at their 7-star golf-themed project - M3M Golf Estate on the Golf Course Road (Extn.), Sector 65, Gurugram.
The event saw a bevy of stars with Muzaffar and Meera Ali - the famed Filmmaker of Umrao Jaan, Painter, Fashion Designer; the gorgeous Dia Mirza, Actress, Producer, and UN Goodwill Ambassador and also the dashing Indian Polo Captain Simran Shergill.
The event had a very interesting talk show with the stars in a candid tete-a-tete. Founder and Chairman of M3M Group - Basant Bansal and Director - Pankaj Bansal also participated in the talk show, hosted by Vineet Nanda - President Sales (Delivered Residences) and Jyotsna Chauhan - Advisor-Marketing (Delivered Residences).
Muzaffar Ali when asked on how he manages his multiple interests and talent with so much passion, said, "Dil aur mohabbat se jub kuch karte hai to sub bhadiya ho jaata hai".
Dia Mirza said that if she wasn't an actress, she would have been a lawyer for UN. And shared how she was lucky to be the Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations. On another note, on being asked whether the digital platforms were misusing or taking advantage of No Censor Board and if it is appropriate, her quick response was "Absolutely not".
"There should be no censorship on digital platforms as fortunately, it is the only medium that allows screenplay writers to express themselves completely. Are people misusing it? Yes, few do. It is just like a child who is nurtured in an overprotected and restricted environment and then suddenly, when he is freed, he does not understand how to utilize the freedom. We will surely outgrow the issue of obscenity in times to come. If you watch series like Delhi Crime and Kafir (which I am also a part of), I feel really proud that such well-crafted stories are being written. Besides, it has given a lot of opportunities to the artists to provide meaningful and different genres of storytelling that the digital platform has offered to the industry. The restrictions and involvement of censorship encroach our democratic rights. So, the more responsibilities we bestow on our children, the more responsible they are likely to act and behave. Moreover, obscenity is a phase and it is also subjective. What is obscene to you, may not be obscene to someone else", she explained.
"It was part of 'Dwar pe Rozi' initiative to empower the women of the village Kotwara in UP. It not only revived the crafts of the region but also gave back the local folk their pride and dignity. Now, of course, the brand has traversed a long journey and reached international markets", said Meera Ali while answering a question about her couture brand - Kotwara.

It is very similar to what we think about the current market scenario. For me, there is no downfall in the market; it is just a state of mind. If you spread positivity, it will come back multifold", replied Bansal.
