In a goof-up, the name of popular Columbian actress Angela Garcia was wrongly mentioned as Alicia on the event schedule at the ongoing nternational Film Festival of India (IFFI) here.

The 'Los Hongos' actress, who is on her maiden visit to India, was introduced as Alicia Garcia on the event schedule, leaving journalists in tizzy.

"Her name was wrongly mentioned as Alicia, but we corrected the mistake at the last minute when the name plate was changed to her original name," said one of the organisers.

The actress was unfazed by the goof-up in her name during the press conference for her film 'Los Hongos' in IFFI's International Cinema section.
 

The festival, since it began on November 20, witnessed many goof-ups, resulting in chaotic situation in its grand opening function which was attended by megastars Amitabh Bachchan and Rajinikanth, besides several senior Union ministers and officials.

Both the stars were literally mobbed by the over-enthusiastic fans.
