| Aamna: No thanks! Sony's chief creative director Sandiip Sikcand, who has been allegedly poaching actors from the Balaji fold, sent the audience home grinning. He escorted Aamna Shariff hand-in-hand as the curtains came down at the Indian Telly Awards. Ekta ke kapde! Some bitchy actresses were overheard saying they were shocked at how Kapoor came dressed so casually to the awards ceremony! No Balaji brigade There was a buzz doing the rounds at the Indian Telly Awards on Friday that Balaji actors had been given instructions not to attend the HHITA event the following day. Special treatment Though there were several producers present, Ekta Kapoor, Rajeev Shukla and wife Anuradha Prasad were given special treatment at the Indian Telly Awards. Now you know who matters and who doesn't! Juhi-Anuj: Thanda
Juhi Parmar and Anuj Saxena hosted the final segment of the Indian Telly Awards but their warm vibes could not be seen on stage. It looked like Anuj was having a bad day, as he fumbled and kept wiping his face with a hanky (blame it on the humidity?). Earlier in the evening, there were hiccups in the make-up van when Anuj realised that his clothes were not ready. Apparently, one of the staff had to run over to the nearby Apna Bazar to buy an iron! Certainly pressing problems for Anuj! Vamp take Everyone felt Anchal Dwivedi deserved it for Saat Phere. It must have taken even Achint by surprise, since she was not present to collect the award. Kunika went on stage to accept the trophy on her behalf, and was mistaken for Achint by Ranvir Shourie! Chehra pe chehra The HHITA Awards GR8! Face Of the Year (Male) Award was bagged by Hussain Kuwajerwala and GR8! Face Of The Year (Female) by Mandira Bedi. Both have been around for ages, so we're still wondering why these two were selected when there are plenty of fresh faces around! Kya bolti Rajshri? Rajshri Thakur, who bagged the Best Popular Actress award at the HHITA, turned up in a bizarre outfit and could not speak a single line correctly. Some bitchy actresses commented that even their domestic helps look better! Ouch! Best for what? Rohit Roy bagged the Best Popular Actor award for Virasaat. This was a huge surprise and even Rohit appeared a tad uncomfy, leaving the stage in a hurry. Shveta Salve paid a tribute to Helen by performing on the dancing queen's old hits numbers at the HHITA, but it seems the show's producers were a little confused over their choice of tracks. Shveta actually performed to Mera naam hai Shabbo… pyar se mujhe Shabnam kehte hain (originally performed by Bindu) in her tribute! It was surprising to see star sublet Munisha Khatwani plonk herself next to veteran actress Asha Parekh at the HHITA event. Was it because the cameras were certain to zoom in on Parekh? The yesteryear actress didn't even exchange a word with Khatwani! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
