IIFA 2013: Barfi!, Kahaani win top honours, celebs' performances charmed award night

The 14th International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) awards show held last night in Macau has won the hearts of many. The awards night was hosted by SRK and Shahid Kapoor and both the stars managed to entertain the audiences with their quirky style, they teased yet amused all. The awards night was charmed with the performances of legendary Madhuri Dixit, Prabhu Dheva, Sridevi and by the young brigade of Priyanka Chopra and Ranbir Kapoor, followed by others.

At the awards front, Barfi! and Kahaani were the show stealers, managed to win almost each and every award. Barfi! star Ranbir Kapoor won the Best Actor Award and Vidya Balan won the award in the Best Actress category. It was pretty much expected with these two stars to take home the top honours as the year so far has witnessed their sparkle and domination at other prestigious awards throughout this year.
