IIFA

It is that time of the year again! When all our Bollywood stars glam up overseas for the biggest awards night. Yes, we are talking about International Indian Film Academy awards, popularly known as IIFA. This time the awards are taking place in Thailand, Bangkok and B-town actors have already left the country for the same. From Karan Johar, Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol to Varun Dhawan, Shraddha Kapoor, Kartik Aaryan and Arjun Kapoor, these actors have taken over the foreign land.
