Bollywood stars Salman Khan and Preity Zinta added jaded glamour to the CN Wadia Gold Cup Million Derby at Mahalakshmi Race Course, Mumbai, Sunday evening, March 9, 2008.
Salman Khan was the chief guest at the event hosted by socialite Maureen Wadia, mother of industrialist Ness Wadia, who attended with girlfriend Preity Zinta.
Zinta rested the eye in a wide brimmed black hat with a white satiny cut-away shoulder blouse tucked in a black A-line skirt with a broad black belt.
Her blouse was adorned with three white and black fabric roses on the left shoulder. She matched her ensemble with a black clutch, white and black peep toe pumps with a bow detail and pearl drop earrings.
We liked Zinta's Audrey Hepburn style hat that went perfectly with her dimpled smiling face but were disappointed with the rest of the ensemble, most of all with the poorly tailored blouse and belted skirt.
We don't think it is good idea to mix religion with fashion - the faded red mauli threads on her right wrist looked insipid.
Ness, wore a blue (We don't think he fancies other colors.) suit with a blue pin stripe collar shirt and dark brown aviator glasses. He too had mauli threads.
Salman Khan, distributed Bravery Awards to children who had overcome extreme adversity. He was casually dressed and appeared somber with day old stubble.
The closely contested derby was won by Personified, ridden by jockey Prakash, who barely managed to outrun Gruezi (Neeraj).
