Yes, all this and much more happened at the recent Karbonn Mobiles 17th Annual Star Screen Awards.
The star-studded had a lot to talk about, from the high celebrity quotient to the winners to the performers, but a few things worth mentioning are as follows:
Why Ranvir Wept: Bread pakode ki kasam, Delhi boy Ranvir Singh was as good a host on the show as he was on its debut vehicle Band Baaja Baarat. But that was not why he cried. Apparently, they were khushi ke aansu that rolled down Ranvir’s cheeks when he received the best newcomer award.
He said, “I always wanted to become an actor and today to receive the award and share the stage with SRK and Shahid in front of the entire industry is truly surreal.”
Soon our witty SRK jumped with a sneer at the industry old men saying, “Arrey tu kyun ro raha hain? Rona toh humein chaiye, ab hamara kya hoga? (Why are you crying? We should cry, what will happen to us now?) ?)
Priyanka Chopra in love: It seems with not one but two people! True, Priyanka Chopra introduced Shah Rukh Khan and Shahid Kapur for her performance. Priyanka openly announced her love for both of them saying, “Yeh woh do log hain, jinme se ek ne mujhe pyar karna sikhaya aur dosre ko dekhte hi pyar ho jata hain (SRK taught her how to fall in love and Shahid makes anyone fall in love at first view).”
Shahrukh, hearing this, told Shahid: “I am not happy with the fact that I make women fall in love and you charm them away.” All of this involved no ill intent, but PC really meant what he said. Even before entering Bollywood, she was a die-hard fan of Shahrukh and as far as Shahid and his relationship is concerned, it’s all conjecture.
SRK Angry At Sasha: We also heard that SRK was angry at Shahid Kapoor because the latter didn’t rehearse his lines to introduce the show. This didn’t go down well with SRK and he didn’t give Shahid much time to talk and he himself did most of the talking.
Other than this, the other highlights of the evening were performances by Aishwarya Rai Bachhan and Priyanka Chopra, Vidya Balan’s other appearance in Kanjeevaram, SRK dancing to tere mast do nain with Dabangg beauty Sonakshi Sinha, the red-hot dress I live from Katrina Kaif, to name a few.
For all of this and more, look out for an extravaganza of entertainment with the Karbonn Mobiles 17th Annual Star Screen Awards on January 22 at 8:00pm only on Star Plus!
