20th January 2013 was a star studded event at the 58th Filmfare awards held at YRF studios in Mumbai. As celebrities walked the red carpet, there were the best dressed and worst dressed moments at this year's Filmfare awards.

Black was certainly back at this fashionable awards night as the men chose to play it safe with this colour. Ranbir Kapoor, Ranveer Singh, Manoj Bajpayee, Arjun Kapoor, Sahil Sangha, Ali Zafar, Ramesh Sippy, Boney Kapoor, Anu Malik, Siddharth Malhotra, Marc Robinson, Bhushan Kumar and Siddharth Roy Kapur are a few names who made black look anything but boring.

Karan ohar chose to do it a bit differently as he looked smart in a black and white suit. Complimenting the look was Jackky Bhagnani who chose to move away from being fully dressed in black. Anurag Basu kept it simple and traditional with his Indian attire, dressed in a blue kurta, off white jacket and stole. He could have dressed better for this one considering it was important night for the Barfi! director.

Like the men, Parineeti too chose to play it safe in a simple, boring black sleeveless dress. Chairwoman of the Miss World Organization Julia Morley looked resplendent in high black trousers and sequin black jacket. She entered with Marc Robinson and the Miss World 2012 title winner. Ileana D'Cruz who won the best female debut award for Barfi! dressed to kill in a Cavalli. Priyanka Chopra carried her sea-blue Armani gown perfectly. Thumbs up for this one. Anushka Sharma who walked away with the best supporting female actress award for Jab Tak Hain Jaan looked anorexic in her long flowing yellow gown. Some weight might have added to the dress' charm.

Sridevi looked delicate in a long orange gown that seemed to compliment her figure. But who stole the show was Madhuri Dixit who arrived for the awards function with husband Sriram Nene. Madhuri looked absolutely ravishing in a black Alberto Makali gown.

Pooja Mishra who was also draped in a black dress was heard saying, "I love the black lady, so I am dressed in black". Alia Bhatt got it all right with a Manish Malhotra creation. Simple, traditional yet beautiful! Her Student of the Year co-star Varun Dhawan clearly stood out from the crowd as he looked dapper in an Archana Walvekar creation. The maroon coloured jacket added the spark to his personality.

Huma Qureshi wore a blue Varun Behl creation that somehow missed the mark. Vidya Balan aka Mrs. Siddharth Roy Kapur stuck to her favourite designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee with a cheqeured saree with just a hint of colour. Rekha was amongst the show stealers with her traditional south Indian saree. Age just does not catch up with her! Yami Gautam looked delectable in a Tarun Tahiliani designed lehenga corset dress.

The disasters of the night included Amrita Rao who seemed to suffer from a Victorian hangover in a white jacket and long flowing purple skirt!Femina Miss India World 2012 Vanya Mishra missed the point at this event with a simple one shoulder black dress and gold motifs. Her LBD failed to create the magic.

This year, only a few celebrities seemed to make it to the list of best dressed. Maybe next year will be more hopeful.

Mumbai, Apr 29: Veteran actor Rishi Kapoor is not keeping well and has been admitted to a city hospital here, his elder brother Randhir Kapoor said.

The 67-year-old actor was taken to H N Reliance hospital by his family on Wednesday morning.

"He is in the hospital. He is suffering from cancer and he has some breathing problem, so he has been admitted to the hospital. He is stable now," Randhir told PTI.

The actor returned to India last September after undergoing treatment for cancer in the US for almost a year.

In February, Kapoor was hospitalised twice due to his health issues.

He was first admitted to a hospital in Delhi where he was attending a family function. At the time, Kapoor had said that he was suffering from an "infection".

After his return to Mumbai, he was again admitted to a hospital with viral fever. He was discharged soon after.

Kapoor, who has been quite active on social media, hasn't posted anything on his Twitter account since April 2.

The actor recently announced his next project, a remake of Hollywood film "The Intern", also featuring Deepika Padukone.

Jan 8: Bollywood star Deepika Padukone on Tuesday visited the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) to express solidarity with the students who were attacked by a mob, but she did not address the crowd.

The actor reached the university campus at around 7.40 pm and attended a public meeting, called by JNU Teacher's Association and JNUSU in response to Sunday's attack on students and teachers by a masked mob armed with sticks and rods.

Deepika stood as former JNUSU president Kanhaiya Kumar was raising azaadi slogans and left by the time current president Aishe Ghosh started speaking.

The actor's decision to not address the crowd prompted Ghosh to comment, "when you are in a position, you should speak up".

"There are many people in Bollywood who do not put forth their views when they are not be aired. They are considered role models. I appeal to them: Make inspiring films after something has happened but when you are in that position, also talk about the story that is currently happening," she said.

Later, Ghosh said that Deepika expressed solidarity with the JNU students.

Deepika is in the capital to promote her upcoming release, Meghna Gulzar-directed "Chhapaak".

On Monday, the 34-year-old actor told a news channel that she feels proud that people have come out and raised their voice without fear, in reference to the protests against the amended Citizenship Act, the National Register of Citizens and violence in JNU.

"I feel proud to see that we aren't scared to express ourselves... I think the fact that we are thinking about the country and its future.... Whatever may be our point of view, it's nice to see," Deepika told NDTV India.

"I feel proud about it that people are coming out -- be it on the streets or wherever they are -- they are raising their voice and expressing themselves as it is important. If we want to see a change in life and society, it is important that a point of view be put forward," she added.

Mumbai, Aug 3: Megastar Amitabh Bachchan says he has immense gratitude for the doctors who provided him with medical care for Covid-19 and feels overwhelmed to be free of the virus finally.

Amitabh, on Sunday, tested negative for the novel coronavirus and was discharged from hospital.

The 77-year-old actor was admitted to Nanavati hospital along with son Abhishek after testing positive for Covid-19 on July 11. Abhishek, 44, is still positive and will remain under medical care.

"It has been heartening to be back from the Hospital after the ‘mukti’ from the coronavirus but a sour taste in the mouth when Abhishek has to still be in the medical care," Amitabh wrote in his blog.

The actor said doctors are tirelessly working towards battling the virus "each hour" through consultation, sharing of information and experience with their fraternity from other parts of the world which gives "the hope of repair."

"Assuring us each minute that ‘all shall be well’ , when in fact they themselves struggle to find that confirmed patent that can be used, delivered, executed to save lives and conditions from the virus.

"When I had addressed them as 'angels in white' I had never imagined that I would be supine in their midst to savour their angelic presence, as they give us hope, inspiration and the strength to fight. They are quite quite remarkable. My gratitude shall never fail for them... feeling bad for Abhishek .. prayers he comes home soon," he added.

On Sunday, Abhishek thanked well-wishers for their continued support and said he would remain under medical care.

"I, unfortunately, due to some comorbidities remain Covid-19 positive and remain in hospital. Again, thank you all for your continued wishes and prayers for my family. Very humbled and indebted. I'll beat this and come back healthier! Promise," he wrote.

Abhishek's wife, actor Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, 46, and eight-year-old daughter Aaradhya were discharged from the hospital on Monday after testing negative for Covid-19.
