The Kardashians are among the many international VIPs who have graced the event. Kim, the older sister, shared on Instagram a video showing her car surrounded by Indian photographers upon arrival.
Both sisters received flower garlands at their luxury hotel. Former British Prime Ministers Boris Johnson and Tony Blair also arrived at Mumbai airport ahead of the festivities.
