IIFA Painted in Black
- IndiaGlitz, [Saturday,June 17 2006]
IIFA Awards dazzled the svelte night at Dubai Airport Expo with the whoÂs who of Bollywood converging in their best outfits. It wouldn't be unfair to say that there wasn't anything new in terms of who bagged what as it was a repeat telecast of Filmfare, Zee and Screen Awards. The color of the night was ÂBlack as Sanjay Leela BhansaliÂs gut wrenching film won most of the trophies. What really stood out were the scintillating performances by Hrithik Roshan, Preity Zinta, Himesh Reshamiya and Akshay Kumar. You can catch all the action at Star Plus on 25th June.
