Termed as ‘Bollywood Oscars’, IIFA awards 2018 was held in Bangkok last night while the grand event saw some thrilling and unusual performances by the B-Town celebs.
The IIFA Awards touch a sombre note as Sridevi, who died earlier this year in Dubai due to accidental drowning, was remembered. Anil Kapoor gave a glowing tribute to his late sister-in-law Sridevi. She was also awarded ‘Best Actress’ award for her final role in ‘Mom’.
The show-stopper of the magical night was Rekha. After what seemed likes ages, veteran actor Rekha took to the stage to deliver a performance that was in equal parts lovely and nostalgic.
