But as the event progressed, the enthusiastic public couldn't care less about the lack of celeb support. There were hundreds of people, interesting street plays, an engaging performance by the Delhi Drum Circle to enthrall the participants.

As for celebs, we all know, it's easy to 'like' and hit the 'attend' button on Facebook, than actually brave the heat and walk the streets with the common man.
