Dubai is a hot destination for all the stars of Bollywood as they are in high demand there. Therefore when an auction of celebrities personal belongings was organised by Rohit Roy to help a training center for kids with special needs, every thing was a sell out.
According to sources, “Hrithik Roshan’s Diesel jacket fetched the highest about 11,000 Dirhams. Ranbir’s leather jacket (worn in Rockstar, 2011) fetched 10,000 dirhams while Salman’s blue shirt and trousers fetched 10,000 Dirham (Rs 1.6 lakh approx). Deepika Padukone’s cocktail dress from Race 2 got 8,000 Dirham (Rs 1.3 lakh approx) while Kareena Kapoor’s salwar kameez from Heroine went for 10,000 Dirham”.
Rohit Roy was quite pleased with the outcome of the auction and confirmed that “Yes, Hrithik’s jacket got the highest bid. Actually, everyone’s belongings were sold for around 10,000-11,000 Dirham. They all are huge draws in Dubai. I’m thankful that they were forthcoming when I told them about this charitable deed. They happily parted with their belongings.” He also feels that such an auction with help of Bollywood Stars will be beneficial for the Children to get a solid foundation.
Hope you get to set many such auctions for the benefit of those children Rohit.
