Hit Indian film “Dabangg” wins best picture at annual Bollywood awards in Toronto

A tale about a corrupt police officer, “Dabangg”, has snagged the best picture award at the glitzy, star-studded 12th International Indian Film Academy awards in Toronto, held on North American soil for the first time.

Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan took the prize for leading male role for the film “My Name is Khan,” about the treatment of Muslims in a world of heightened suspicions following the September 11, 2001, terror attacks. Khan played the family’s Muslim patriarch who suffers from Asperger’s syndrome. The hit film, nominated in seven categories, also took home the prize for best direction.

Anushka Sharma won the leading female role award for “Band Baaja Baaraat”. The awards were handed out early Sunday.

Erotically speaking:

Bhumika is fiercely protective about her personal life and does not like to do anything which can cause problems in her private life. She is the Ayesha Takia of the South, in many ways. Though she has exposed her mid-riff in quite a few movies, you cannot really think of Bhumika as a man-eater or conjure up a wild image of hers.
