Precious memories

The Commonwealth Games may be over. But even if you were not one of the participants, Gitanjali Group's Commonwealth collection of medallions and pendants, crafted from precious metals like silver and gold, gives you a chance to keep a personal memento of one of the grandest sporting events that India has hosted in recent memory.



For the proud owner, it will bring back fond recollections of the magnificent scale of the show, and of India's record-breaking tally of medals.

Gitanjali Group was the official licence partner for the Commonwealth Games and unveiled the new collection -- a set of silver medallions and pendants from Lucera and silver and gold coins from Gitanjali gifts recently.

The collection was launched at the newly opened Nakshatra Universe store in Krishna Nagar, Delhi by John Abraham, star of Jhootha hi Sahi when excitement about the Games was at fever pitch.

And as the sporting spectacle recedes into the background, the collection offers sports lovers a chance to preserve a small reminder of how the event that was on the verge of being dismissed as a fiasco, turned into a memorable event that makes us proud to be Indian.
