I hope we all collectively raise funds, spread awareness and strengthen the force,&quot; Aishwarya said during the amfAr event Sunday evening. Adding to this, Abhishek said, &quot;We are honoured to be here today and we both feel strongly about the disease HIV. It&#39;s a matter of pride to raise funds for this cause and spread the awareness.&quot; The black tie event, held at the Taj Mahal Palace and Hotel here featured a cocktail reception, dinner, and a gold-themed fashion show featuring exclusive looks by Rohit Bal, Abu Jani-Sandeep Khosla, and Tarun Tahiliani. The evening concluded with a high-energy performance by pop sensation Kesha, whose songs including her hits &ldquo;Animal,&rdquo; &ldquo;We R Who We R,&rdquo; and &ldquo;Tik Tok,&rdquo; had guests dancing into the night. Aishwarya was especially thankful to Sharon Stone, who is amfAR&#39;s global fundraising chair. &quot;It&#39;s very generous of her. We salute her passion to drive so passionately towards this cause. She is worthy of salutation,&quot; said the former beauty queen. From Bollywood, Sophie Choudry, Dino Morea and Nargis Fakhri were in attendance.
