KJo kickstarts it!
The director begins the post-awards after-party trend in India
In Hollywood, the post-Oscars bash are as big as the event itself. Karan Johar has kickstarted the trend here. On Saturday night, the producer-director had a post-Filmfare awards party at a five-star hotel in Bandra.
The guest list read the who's who of B-Town. One of the starry guests quipped, "It was better attended than the awards itself!"
At the bash were Gauri and Shah Rukh Khan, Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra and Shahid Kapur, Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor, Imran Khan and Avantika Malik, Riteish Deshmukh and Genelia D'Silva, Arjun Rampal and Mehr Jesia, Bipasha Basu and John Abraham and Karisma with hubby Sanjay Kapur.
Solo arrivals
The girls who came sans their men included Malaika Arora Khan, Preity Zinta, Seema Khan, Maheep Kapoor and Sushmita Sen. Sonam Kapoor, Vidya Balan and Tanishaa were also present. The solo men included Vivek Oberoi, Kunal Kapoor, Tusshar Kapoor, Rahul Khanna and Uday Chopra. The glitterati were represented by Parmeshwar Godrej, Kaajal Anand, Queenie Dhody and Farhad Taraporewala besides Sheetal Mafatlal. KJo arrived post 1.30 am and good friend Kaajal played host till he arrived. The party went on till 6 am!
The media was not invited which meant that the stars could mingle and play without having the wandering eyes of the press around them.
Apparently, K-Jo is going to make this shin-ding a yearly event and ritual. So you can expect an annual extravaganza from Johar post the Filmfare ceremony next year and for many years to come. In fact, his filmy friends insist that Karan take this responsibility on himself as he is known to give some of the best parties in Tinseltown.
While we have no details or photographs of the happenings at the party, one can just imagine what would have taken place!
