it’s Oprah’s Day at Jaipur litfest, and crowds just pour in

US talk show host Oprah Winfrey greets the audience at the Jaipur Literature Festival; a fan holds up a placard that reads “Oprah, I have waited 10 years for 1 minute of your time” during her session at the litfest on Sunday.
Hundreds of people who had come to see the world’s most celebrated talk show host waited at the security checkpoints since early morning on Sunday. The 57-year-old media mogul turn-ed up wearing a yellow-green embroidered salwar paired with ankle grazing western-style pyjamas said she was impressed by India’s “glorious” family traditions and would love to return to the country which had much more to it than filth and poverty. Asked if she would like to have a Taj Mahal dedicated to her, she shot back, “My life is a Taj Mahal”. — AP
