The night of the Black Lady!
It was left to yesteryear star Kamini Kaushal to describe the pulse behind Saturday night’s 53rd Fair One Filmfare Awards 2007 at the Yash Raj Studios.
Watching masters of ceremony Shah Rukh Khan and Saif Ali Khan at their irrepressible best, she observed, “These boys are the soul of the show.” And it was true, the Bollywood Badshah and Chhote Nawab with their zany sense of compering set the tone for the evening when Bollywood’s bold and beautiful first walked the red carpet and then, if they were lucky, up the stage to collect the Black Lady for work they had done in 2007.
SRK who won the Best Actor Award for Chak De! India , took home his seventh, which is only one lesser than Dilip Kumar. And Kareena Kapoor, perhaps the evening’s brightest star, got the Best Actress Award for Jab We Met in which she acted with ex-boyfriend Shahid Kapoor. He was conspicuous by his absence. As was Aamir Khan whose Taare Zameen Par got the Best Director, Best Film and Critics’ Award for Best Actor for star kid Darsheel Safary. The 11-year-old boy had the audience in splits and his parents in tears with his acceptance speech before Shah Rukh and Saif hoisted him on their shoulders and carried him away.
Rishi Kapoor, who received the Lifetime Achievement Award from his first co-star, the stunning Dimple Kapadia, was joined on stage by lovely wife Neetu Kapoor. Rishi dedicated the award to her and his grandfather, Prithviraj Kapoor. Then, in an absolute RK Studios moment, his voice choked with emotion, Rishi said he would be proud to see his son Ranbir one day getting the same award.
It was Ranbir’s night, too, as he won the Best Debutant award. There was much bonding between the Kapoor cousins as Ranbir and sister Riddhima and Kareena and Karisma Kapoor cheered lustily for each other. While the new actress in town, Deepika Padukone, was unquestionably the apt recipient of the Best Debutante award.
Akshay Kumar, Kareena Kapoor, Vivek Oberoi and Himesh Reshammiya entertained, while Karan Johar made a valiant attempt despite a throat infection with female compere Vidya Balan to upstage Shah Rukh and Saif. But the duo was unputdownable that night. Akshay put on a pulsating performance that included songs from Heyy Baby and Bhool Bhulaiyya , Kareena did a Britney Spears to It’s Rocking and Mauja Hi Mauja , Vivek played the Tapori Aye Ganpat role to the hilt and Himesh revealed his new avataar with Asalam Waleikum .
