MTV Lycra Awards started off with the red carpet roll out - albeit
a mini version - with hooting and cat calls greeting the invitees
who were dresses in their best. But who could compete with columnist
Shobhaa De in her bright blue-green sari and Fardeen Khan in his
designer denim outfit!
As for the in-house styles, VJs Anusha and Ramona dressed in Aki
Narula's creation, Sophiya's golden Rocky S outfit and Shehnaz's
Indian outfit looked chic.
It was Rohit Bal's all-white collection that set the mood for the
show. With Trilok Gurtu providing the music and Roop Kumar Rathod
the vocals, the show gradually picked up the beat.
What really set the humour rolling was the Elvis Presley sighting
- VJ Cyrus Broacha dressed up as the rock-'n-roll legend along with
leggy VJ Malaika Arora Khan was at his best.
Then came cricket commentator Navjot Singh Sidhu to present the
awards to Anshu Arora who was crowned the best breakthrough artist
of the year, along with a bunch full of Sidhuism.
Unaware of what to do with the iron shaped awards trophy given
to him, he guffawed that he was "as confused as a baby in a
topless bar".
With innumerable dress changes, as Gabbar and Basanti (of Sholey),
doctor and slutty nurse, or solo acts like Sachin and Ferrari, Daler
Mehndi, Broacha and Arora Khan had the audience in splits.
Boasting of over 11,000 votes received from the local junta, the
Lycra awards saw the likes of Vijay Mallya, Fardeen Khan, Feroze
Khan, Sameera Reddy, Kim Jagtiani, Sonali Kulkarni, Anil Ambani
with wife Tina Ambani, Mandira Bedi with hubby Raj Kaushal, Simone
Singh, Abhishek Bachchan, Jackie Shroff, Arjun Rampal... The list
is endless.
