Neil's a party animal

"I love Christmas," says Neil Nitin Mukesh. The actor who was busy shooting made it a point to fly down to Mumbai for Christmas day.

And with his friend tying the knot on that day, the festival couldn't have been more special. Neil now hopes to bring in the New Year with a party at home. He shares his party fundas with CS:

Young at heart
Even today, the child in me is somewhere hoping that Santa Claus will get me gifts. And since that's not happening, I'll just buy them for myself.

What's so special this year is that my sister and her husband have flown down from New York for the first time after their marriage to spend the holidays with us. I'm going to plan a small get together for the two at my home.

Enterprising host
I love planning parties and have picked up things from party shops in town to make the event exciting. Fun and games have to be a part of my party.

And inevitably, I'm always the bartender. Since I don't drink a lot, I enjoy mixing drinks for my friends and family.

Party essentials
If one could wear boxers to a party, I'd have gone in them. Good party attire for men would be jeans and a good t-shirt.

To tell you the truth, I hate wearing glares in a party; I really don't understand this fad. A interesting headgear is cool. And yes, a good car to drive in to the party. That always grabs eyeballs!
