When Bollywood denizens contend that a Hindi film attention is one large happy family and awards shows are like family reunions, it infrequently is 0 some-more than small platitudes and PRspeak.
At a Zee Cine Awards hold during The Venetian Macao on Jan 21, blood lines ran thicker than glamorous networking as brothers and sisters, cousins, fathers and daughters were adult for awards.
One such span was a hermit and sister group of Farhan and Zoya Akhtar who were adult for a Best Director award; Farhan for Don 2 and Zoya for Zindagi Milegi Na Dobara, a film that also got Farhan a Best Supporting Actor nomination.
We won’t be means to exhibit a winners as Zee TV has placed an embargo on that information until after a behind telecast of a awards rite on Feb 5 in India. It will be telecast in Singapore on Feb 12.
When tabla! asked Farhan during a red runner how he felt about going adult opposite his sister for a best executive gong, he said, with tongue resolutely in cheek: “I consider we bought that line that a film attention is like a family. It is.”
He combined that he didn’t see it as foe between him and his twin sister and that he was rooting for her to win: “I am utterly carefree that she would win a award. She finished utterly a special film final year. we wish to be clapping for her.”
When her cousin Parineeti Chopra was adult for a Best Debut (Female) for Ladies vs Ricky Behl, horde Priyanka Chopra did not censor who she was rooting for when a nominations were announced, by clapping and entertaining really loudly. Probably since womanlike winners got a trinket set from Gitanjali.
There was also a father and daughter group of Jeetendra and Ekta Kapoor who were adult for awards. Jeetendra looked on proudly as his daughter’s film, The Dirty Picture, was nominated for several awards that night.
The extravanganza hold during The Venetian’s large Cotai Arena was hosted by Priyanka and Shah Rukh Khan, who did a really veteran hosting job. King Khan as common elicited a many volume of screams and cheers.
The twin did a send-up of all a best design nominees from their film, Don 2, Singham, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, Rockstar, Ra. One, Body Guard and The Dirty Picture that infrequently fell flat.
Priyanka put on a fat fit to satire Vidya Balan’s chubby impression and attempted to poke fun during Vidya’s voluptuousness. Vidya to her credit didn’t take it too severely and after told a media behind theatre that she enjoyed a awards show. She did supplement that while she would be shedding some weight yet not too most as “wholesome is in. Wholesome is sexy”. Take that, we distance 0 bobblehead Bollywood dolls.
The uncover also saw some thespian stunts by Ranbir Kapoor who was creation his live opening entrance during a awards.
Obviously desirous by a acrobats during The Venetian’s permanent Cirque du Soleil show, Zaia, a actor who was adult for a Best Actor award, finished his entrance by arching down from a Cotai Arena roof on a handle strap onto a height nearby a assembly that sent a throng into a tizzy.
Another throng torpedo was Shahid Kapoor who, in a center of his performance, ran into a audience, climbed onto a vituperation in a locus and continued dancing, causing pandemonium among a fans and amazement among a really fit confidence staff.
The twin – they are not associated though this is Bollywood, so they are “bros” – achieved to a miscellany of songs from cinema that starred Ranbir’s grand uncle Shammi Kapoor and late actor Dev Anand.
Ranbir told DNA that he was a final notation further to a shred though was gratified to have had a possibility to honour a families, including his: “Shahid was ostensible to do it though afterwards after on we motionless to do it together. It is only a reverence we are profitable to Dev saab and we are dancing to Khoya Khoya Chand in a ’50s style. We’re also doing Shammi Kapoor’s Yahoo. We are perplexing to do it in a possess style. We are not perplexing to impersonate them or duplicate them in any way. We wish to be during slightest dual per cent of what they have finished in their lifetime.”
But it was plainly transparent during a opening who a improved dancer was; Shahid attempted not to dance circles around Ranbir, who maybe should hang to behaving and personification his guitar.
The dusk finished with a film companionship on theatre for a finale. All together now, awwww.
