But we thank AltAir and Diageo for pampering us. It was a great ambience complemented by great food and cocktails. We all gathered together and cheered together and patted each other’s back for our upcoming projects in our respective fields. Generally, we are all busy so it was great to spend a relaxed evening with everyone,” said Richa.
