How the stars reacted to the run:
Shabana Azmi: “I’m participating for the first time. I’m also flagging off the Harmony Silvers run for Tina Ambani. I’m doing it for the Rahul Bose Foundation. It’s for Tsunami-affected kids who are taught at Rishi Valley.”
Urmila Matondkar: “For practical reasons, I could not participate in the Mumbai Marathon. But I’d love to. I didn’t get time to prepare for it. But I support it wholeheartedly. It means standing up for a cause that’s close to your heart. It’s like doing your bit to keep the energy and integrity of Mumbai intact.”
Shekhar Kapoor: “Sorry, I’m in Las Vegas for the opening of the newest and biggest casino. I had to skip the marathon.”
Prashant Raj: “Yes, I took part in the Marathon. I loved it because it’s the one time when the entire city comes together and comes alive.”
Aseem Merchant: “I wish I was in town. The marathon is a great way of endorsing a healthy life. When celebrities sweat it out for a cause, it is better than making money. It’s important for us to set a good example.”
Malaika Arora: “I’m not running. But I love the spirit behind it.”
Irrfan Khan: “For me it’s like a festival created in two days’ time. This calls for a celebration. I’m not in town.”
