Anushka Sharma wowed in bridal inspired red sari and gold jewelry at the Dadasaheb Phalke Academy Awards 2011 Tuesday noon, May 3 at Bhaidas Hall in Vile Parle, Mumbai.
Anushka, 23 and Ranveer Singh, 25, arrived at the Awards function together from Agra where the pair is filming for YRF production Ladies Vs Ricky Bahl.
Both the young stars were honored at the event for their performance in Band Baaja Baaraat - Anushka for Excellent Performance in a Film and Ranveer for Best Debut of the Year.
Anushka looked demure in her red sari with a thin gold border and a matching cap sleeve backless blouse.
She accessorized with gold strappy heels and statement gold jewelry - chunky necklace, matching jhumkas, thick bangle in her right arm and multiple rings.
She seems to have shortened her hair by a few inches. Her hair was styled in luscious waves with an off center parting.
She wore cat eye liner, eyelash extensions, cherry lipstick and a small red bindi.
Ranveer looked dapper in a Grey silk suit, white shirt and a sleek pin stripe tie. He is sporting long hair and a stubble, his look for the Casanova role in Ladies Vs Ricky Bahl.
The pair presented an Award to Asha Parekh.
"I'm truly elated and it's a very prestigious award because he is the visionary of the Indian film industry and to get such an honor at such a young age for me is extremely motivating and encouraging and I hope that whatever little I'm trying to do in the industry, if it makes even slightest of mark, it will make me happy," said Anushka at the event.
"Quite clearly this is the most prestigious award that I've received till now. It's a very big day for me. Its amazing to be here and to be receiving this award," said Ranveer.
The two actors were escorted to the stage soon after their arrival as the duo had to return to Agra by the 1.30pm flight.
