Shah Rukh, Salman's dance at Sonam Kapoor's reception goes viral

May 9, 2018

Mumbai, May 9: Actor Sonam Kapoor's reception looked like a compilation of visuals straight out of the '90s Bollywood as contemporaries Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan and Anil Kapoor indulged in bromance by dancing together to their old numbers.

The who's and who of Bollywood, including Kareena Kapoor, Aishwarya Rai, Kangana Ranaut, Ranbir Kapoor, Katrina Kaif and Alia Bhatt, attended Sonam and Anand Ahuja's reception last evening.

But it was the camaraderie shared by the bride's father and his contemporaries that was the highlight of the evening and became one of the most shared moments online.

Shah Rukh came hand-in-hand with wife Gauri minutes before midnight, while Salman followed half-an-hour later with his "Race 3" co-star Jacqueline Fernandez.

The two stars joined Anil on the stage and started matching steps on hits such as "Tan Tana Tan", "Ek Do Teen" and "Mujhse Shaadi Karogi". The three stars soon pulled the newlyweds on to the stage.

Salman also channelised the singer within by taking the mic and crooning with singer Mika and occasionally making Shah Rukh join him.

In one of the viral moments, both Shah Rukh and Salman got down on their knees and sang "Yeh Bandhan Toh Pyar Ka Bandhan Hai" for Anil's wife Sunita.

In the film, "Karan Arjun", this is the song the actors sing for their mother, played by Rakhee.

An embarrassed Sunita tried to leave the stage, but the duo did not let her until they finished the song.

The evening also saw energetic performances by Sonam's second cousin, Arjun Kapoor and actors Ranveer Singh and Varun Dhawan.

Other Bollywood stars, who were seen dancing, were Kareena, who happily shook a leg to husband Saif Ali Khan's song, "Ole Ole", Swara Bhaskar and Karan Johar, who gave a solo performance on songs from his and Sonam's films such as "Prem Ratan Dhan Payo", "Sajan Ji Ghar Aaye" and "Shava Shava".

A group of family and friends grooved to Sonam's hit song "Gal Mithhi Mithhi Bol" in a synchronised fashion.

Sonam and Anand tied the knot on Tuesday afternoon in a Sikh ceremony.

Mumbai, Mar 7: A 'farm-to-fork' themed restaurant 'He-Man' situated on National Highway in Haryana's Karnal -- franchised by veteran Bollywood actor Dharmendra -- has been sealed for building law violations, officials said on Saturday.

The Karnal Municipal Corporation sealed the franchise outlet on Friday for not furnishing the change of land use (CLU) certificate and illegal constructions, an official said.

The restaurant is located on National Highway 44 on the outskirts of Karnal, some 150 km from here.

The franchise was given to Delhi-based businessman Pramod Kumar.

"After the success of my restaurant Garam Dharam Dhaba, I am now announcing a farm-to- fork themed restaurant 'He-Man'," Dharmendra had announced on Instagram after its launch on Valentine's Day.

Karnal Deputy Commissioner Nishant Yadav said the action was initiated as the restaurant owner did not respond to MC notice on the issue.

Los Angeles, Jul 1: Bollywood stars Alia Bhatt, Hrithik Roshan and costume designer Neeta Lulla are among the 819 artistes and executives who have received invitations to join the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS).

Bhatt's last movie, the Zoya Akhtar-directed Gully Boy was India's official entry for best international feature category at the 2019 Oscars. However, the film had failed to make it to the final five.

Other prominent Indian names to receive invitations are casting director Nandini Shrikent, documentary filmmakers Nishtha Jain, Shirley Abraham, Amit Madheshiya, visual effects supervisors Vishal Anand and Sandeep Kamal.

In a statement, the Academy said the new invitees include 36 per cent of people of colour and 45 per cent women. Artistes from 68 countries have been invited as members.

Those who accept the invitation will have voting rights at the 93rd Academy Awards, scheduled to be held on April 25, 2021.

"The Academy is delighted to welcome these distinguished fellow travellers in the motion picture arts and sciences. We have always embraced extraordinary talent that reflects the rich variety of our global film community, and never more so than now," Academy President David Rubin said.

The Academy has been actively working to introduce more diversity in its voting to avoid a controversy like 2016 when the Oscars were dubbed "white" for failing to recognise talents of colour.

The 2020 batch boasts of major Hollywood names like Cynthia Erivo, John David Washington, Constance Wu, Zazie Beetz, Florence Pugh, Zendaya, Awkwafina, Yalitza Aparicio, Mackenzie Davis, Ana de Armas, Adele Haenel, Thomasin McKenzie, Olivia Wilde and others.

The stars of multiple Oscar-winning South Korean movie Parasite -- Jang Hye-Jin, Jo Yeo-Jeong, Park So-Dam and Lee Jung-Eun -- are among the invitees.

Directors Lulu Wang, Ari Aster, Terence Davies, Matthew Vaughn, Robert Eggers, Matt Reeves, Alma Har’el are on the list as well.

The Academy has announced a new five-year plan that includes implementing inclusion standards for nominees.

"We take great pride in the strides we have made in exceeding our initial inclusion goals set back in 2016, but acknowledge the road ahead is a long one.  We are committed to staying the course.

"We look forward to continuing to foster an Academy that reflects the world around us in our membership, our programs, our new Museum, and in our awards," Academy CEO Dawn Hudson said.

In 2019, the organisation had invited 842 new members which included Indian names such as filmmakers Zoya Akhtar, Anurag Kashyap and veteran actor Anupam Kher.
