Stars Converge on Sacramento
Guests at the function |
It was an evening to remember
when several stars got together in Sacramento to celebrate
a special birthday. Janice Miller, Anisha Bakshi, Sirpunj
(also known as T.J.Kool), Akbar Lakhani, and Myza Yang came
to grace the event. There was manifest joy, happiness, and
cheers everywhere in a beautifully decorated hall of the Unitarian
Universal Society of Sacramento.
The evening started with a recitation from the Holy Qur’an
by Imam Mumtaz Qasmi. A delicious six-course dinner, both
vegetarian and no- vegetarian prepared especially for the
occasion, was enjoyed by everyone present. The master of ceremony
Annie Akhtar, who is socially and culturally active in the
Pakistani community in the San Francisco Bay area, performed
a superb job.

It seems like no event is complete
without the Laotian Asian Michi or Myza Yang. A beautiful
Asian young girl, Myza Yang was invited to entertain the audience.
She and her younger sister performed beautiful dances on some
famous songs. Myza is a professional dancer who was inspired
by her cousin Michi Yang who also excels as a dancer. Myza
is planning on using the money earned from her dancing career
to pay for her college education. Her younger sister is new
to the show biz industry and has just made her debut.
Akbar Lakhani who is an established
Star, came all the way from Indiana to perform. The audience
was drawn to the dance floor by Akbar’s beautiful songs.
Some of his songs included “Shava, Shava” and
“Kul ho na ho”.
Janice Miller, the main performer came pouring her heart out
to entertain the audience. Of course, she does what she always
does and performed superbly. It can be said, and rightly so,
that people dance to her songs till they drop.
The star of the show was of course Mr. Shawn Sattar, who was
celebrating his 13th birthday. It has been a tradition to
celebrate Shawn’s birthday every year with great enthusiasm
and he will be back next year with an even bigger party and
more entertainment.
