Skiing in Switzerland, camping in the hills of Uttaranchal and catching up with friends at a cozy get together in Mumbai - that's how Bollywood stars and small screen actors plan to say goodbye to 2006 and bring in the New Year.

Saif Ali Khan: I'll be skiing with my kids in Verbier in Switzerland for New Year's eve. Can't think of a better way of bringing in New Year.

Rahul Bose: I'm currently in Andaman for the commemorative event for the second year of tsunami. But I shall be back in time to go on a holiday for the New Year with my sister and my niece. They're the fulcrums of my existence.

Smriti Irani: Work and more work on New Year's eve and then a quiet dinner with family.

Rajiv Khandelwal: Will be camping in the mountains of Uttaranchal with my brother, sister-in-law and nephew.

Riteish Deshmukh: Nothing planned. Will see how it goes.

Iqbal Khan: My two sisters and their kids will be with me, Inshaa Allah, along with my dad and mum. The entire family will be together and we'll have a blast. Maybe I'll go and see my fiancé. Since this will be her last New Year's eve with her family, she'll want to be with them and I respect that. I know that sounds boring for someone who's getting married in a few weeks. But I've always been a home bird.

Bipasha Basu: No plans as such - just a small dinner with family and friends. Some very close friends have come from abroad. So I'll take them to the pleasure spots in Mumbai. And on Jan 8 I leave for South Africa and London for four months. Meanwhile, there are loads of works to be taken care of.

Arshad Warsi: My wife Maria and I are having a small barbecue party at home with some friends. Wanna come?

Aftab Shivdasani: My plans for the New Year are right now undecided. I'll just play it by the ear... year, ha ha.

Shilpa Shetty: Spending it with family at home and then I leave home for a longish spell.

Amrita Arora: Our whole family will be in Dubai for one week. That should be fun.

Raima Sen: Will be in Pune for a party.

Kangana Ranaut: My parents are down for New Year's eve. Unfortunately, they've to leave on Dec 31. My sister and me have asked them to stay back for New Year celebration. If they're here, we'll bring in the New Year in the traditional way. We'll go to a temple and mom will cook some traditional dishes.

Shiney Ahuja: My wife and I will bring in New Year in our new house with a candle light dinner.

Dino Morea: This time New Year's eve will be with family and friends in Mumbai. For a change I won't be travelling.
