Although there are already countless award ceremonies for Indian cinema, the Chhoton Ka Funda Awards were voted by over 80,000 school children. Many of the voters attended the fun ceremony with their parents and enjoyed watching the two Bollywood stars receive their Best Actor and Actresses awards.
Some of the children even performed dance numbers and were thrilled when Hrithik came on stage to join them. “When I was a kid, I used to be crazy about stars like the Big B and had the same enthusiasm as these children. Now I’m experiencing the same situation from the other side of the fence,” Hrithik later commented. *

We had the opportunity of asking the truth from the horse's mouth.
According to Shahid, there is no romantic involvement. He tells us, "Kareena is a good human being and a good friend. Just the fact that we are working together in some films does not mean that we share the hots."
This may not be the last word because relationships intensify and deteriorate in Bollywood any moment.
