The 19th edition of the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) Awards held at Thailand’s Siam Niramit came to an end on Sunday night.
Amidst breathtaking performances, the big winners of the awards function were Tumhari Sulu (Best Film 2018), Late Sridevi (Best Performance Leading Role – Female), Irrfan Khan (Best Performance Leading Role – Male), Saket Chaudhary (Best Director for Hindi Medium), Meher Vij (Best Supporting Actor – Female) and Nawazuddin Siddiqui (Best Supporting Actor – Male) among others.
Vidya Balan starrer ‘Tumhari Sulu’ was declared Best Film at IIFA 2018.
It was indeed an emotional moment for Boney Kapoor as he accepted the Best Actor - Female award on behalf of his late wife and legendary actress Sridevi for ‘Mom’ at the 19th International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) Awards. It is true that Sridevi will always remain in our hearts for her outstanding performances!
Sahil Sangha and Dia Mirza present the award for Best Story to Amit Masurkar for ‘Newton’
David Dhawan and Subhash Ghai present the award for Best Direction to Saket Chaudhary for ‘Hindi Medium’. A successful win indeed!
Its unbelievable how Rekha performs on stage on ‘Jab Pyaar Kiya Toh Darna Kya’ at IIFA 2018 in Bangkok. Just can’t take our eyes off her. Redefining grace would be an understatement!
He has indeed, given one stellar performance after the other. It was a moment of pride as Anupam Kher received the Lifetime Achievement by Anil Kapoor.
Ranbir Kapoor clearly set the stage for a kick ass performance. He had our hearts racing as he performed on ‘Balam Pichkaari’ with immense energy!
It’s true, no one really slays it the way Shraddha Kapoor does on stage! We definitely couldnt get enough of her ‘Humma Humma’ moves on the IIFA 2018 stage.
Breaking her way into the big leagues with her directorial artistry, the award for Debut - Director is picked up by none other than Konkana Sen for A Death in the Gunj.
Director Anurag Basu and Nushrat Bharucha present the award for Best Playback singer Male to none other than Arijit Singh for the song, ‘Hawaayein’
While we are not sure whether she did or she did not mesmerize the audiences with her fashion sense throughout the year, Kriti Sanon looked every bit stunning on stage receiving The Style Icon of The Year Award!
Director Anurag Basu and Anirudh Choudhury present the award for Best Lyrics to Manoj Muntashir for ‘Mere Rashqe Qamar’!
Rekha Mishra wins Best Playback Singer - Female award for ‘Secret Superstar’ song Main Kaun Hoon.
Kriti Sanon & Arjun Kapoor’s on stage chemistry was quite interesting we must say and energy levels were bound go through the roof as the two matched steps. Kriti replaced Priyanka Chopra in this dance number with Baba. While the two stars grooved on ‘Tune Maari Entriyaan’ from ‘Gunday’, don’t miss Arjun’s expressions in the photographs above!
A true legend by all means, Rekhaji looks ethereal as she addresses the audience at IIFA 2018 in Bangkok in an ivory ensemble.
Anil Kapoor grooves to ‘Tareefan’ with Karan Johan and Riteish Deshmukh at IIFA 2018!
Whatever AK was trying to do (apparently demonstrating, how it’s done?’), we can see Kartik Aaryan and Ayushmann Khuranna going through some major awkward moments on stage! Looks like the show is only getting dirtier, in a fun way we guess though!
Not bad! We must say Bobby Deol and Iulia Vantur looked quite cute on stage, trying to match steps on the latest Race 3 number, Party Chale On!
Looks like Varun Dhawan brought the house down with his power packed performance at IIFA 2018!
The ever green Rekhaji ditches her silks and opts for an ivory embroidered ensemble. She looks absolutely stunning, as she lets her hair down on the IIFA 2018 green carpet.
Hosts Karan Johar and Reteish Deshmukh have only just begun, but have the audiences complete and unwavering attention. While Karan chose to wear a Dolce & Gabanna suit, Riteish gave away major mustache goals to all the men out there!
Clearly the crowd went crazy, especially the women when Ranbir Kapoor slayed on the green carpet of IIFA 2018 in Bangkok. Looking charming as ever, Ranbir even had women cheering, ‘Sanju, sanju’ as he walked by the crowd. The young star also obliged fans with selfies and hand-shakes!
OMG! Doesn’t he just looks absolutely dashing? Ranbir Kapoor walks in a three-piece suit moments after daddy, Rishi Kapoor gives his attendance.
And doesn’t he look absolutely khadoos? As if telling all the women out there to stay away from his son! Jokes apart, it is always a delight to have Rishi Kapoor the ‘Chintu’ superstar grace any occasion!
Giving us major father-daughter goals, director Anurag Kashyap arrives with daughter, Aaliya on the IIFA 2018 green carpet. While Anurag as always chose to go with a semi-casual denim and blazer look, Aaliya stole the show in a sequinned deep blue, a-line gown, sans make-up!
Nushrat Bharucha wears a light mauve embroidered a-line gown with minimal makeup, a dark mauve lip colour and hair tied at the back with center parting! While Nushrat could have done better with her make-up, Dia Mirza played it safe in a steel grey semi embroidered slit gown. Radhika Apte could do much better! Wonder what made her chose the electric blue outfit with organza detailing for the IIFA 2018 green carpet?
She probably took the ‘green’ carpet way too seriously! But jokes apart, we absolutely loved the laid back ‘lehenga’ on Konkana Sen. She paired the Benarasi lehenga-choli with a plain chiffon dupatta and simple hoops. Not to forget, she always has her way with the camera. Love her smile in this one!
Shraddha Kapoor and Kriti Sanon arrive in on the IIFA 2018 green carpet soon after an array of men including, Arjun Kapoor, Ayushmann Khuranna and Kartik Aaryan walk in all suited up. The two young women seem to have their cindrella moments in place. While Shraddha chooses to wear a satin bow-neck gown, Kriti looks ethereal in an elaborate silver gown.
Amongst the first few to arrive at the IIFA 2018 green carpet were none other than Secret Superstar talent, Zaira Wasim, the rising star, Kartik Aaryan, ace director, Anurag Basu and comeback artist, Bobby Deol. While Kartik looked dapper in a black tuxedo, Bobby chose a paisley jacquard blazer. Zaira Wasim wore an all black outfit and Anurag chose a blue koti on a white kurta with denims.
Ranbir and Shraddha Kapoor are performing at the IIFA 2018 finale, and are practising hard for their numbers. Here’s proof!
Radhika Apte and Diana Penty walked the ramp for fashion designer Vikram Phadnis to unveil a striking new collection at IIFA Rocks.
A handful of starry performances are expected tonight. We caught Varun Dhawan, Arjun Kapoor and Kriti Sanon hard at work rehearsing their numbers.
Bollywood’s biggest stars are already in Siam Niramit, rehearsing for the big performances tonight and of course, getting clicked. Ranbir Kapoor, Varun Dhawan, Arjun Kapoor, Ayushmann Khurrana, Kartik Aaryan and Riteish Deshmukh took time to hang out.
