5 pics of Deepika Padukone that prove she was overjoyed to reunite with Amitabh Bachchan at HT Awards

The Hindustan Times Most Stylish awards 2017, which was held in Mumbai on Friday night, was a starry affair with all the Bollywood A-listers in attendance. From celebrity couples Kajol – Ajay Devgn and Rishi – Neetu Kapoor to veterans like Amitabh Bachchan, Asha Parekh, Randhir Kapoor to youngsters like Sidharth Malohtra, Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt, Parineeti Chopra, the night saw them all.

While the focus should have ideally been on fashion, it was the actors’ candid moments that grabbed everyone’s attention. Take for instance Deepika Padukone and Amitabh Bachchan’s warm meeting. The Piku actors were spotted catching up and looked visibly happy in each other’s company. It was heart-warming to see Deepika holding her on-screen father’s hand and escorting him through the crowd.

A lot has been spoken and written about their on and off relationship in the past. They were said to have been at logger heads with each other post Piku. But, their public appearances have time and again proved the rumours wrong. They were last seen together at Yuvraj Singh’s brand launch and their warm hug spoke volumes of their admiration for each other. We had got to see a similar scene even during the Filmfare Awards last year when Deepika had rushed to greet the senior actor as soon as he arrived on the red carpet. Bachchan ,too, has shared pictures with Deepika in the past on social media which further clears that there are no differences between the two.

Here are the pictures from last night’s event –

Deepika, who wore a black off-shoulder pant suit at the event, bagged the Most Stylish Global Icon award while Amitabh Bachchan won the Most Stylish Star of the Millennium award. The actor in his acceptance speech said, “I am honoured to be in the company of such incredible talent in the younger generation.”
