Abhishek Stands Out in IIFA 2009



Bollywood star Abhishek Bachchan gave an emotional speech while collecting his trophy for Best Performance in a Comic Role at the IIFA awards here today.

No other actor in any Bollywood awards history till date has managed this honour. The nominations for Abhishek for IIFA 2009 were in the following categories - Best Actor in a Leading Role Male for Dostana, Best Actor in a Supporting Role Male for Sarkar Raj, Best Actor in a Comic Role Male for Dostana and Star of the decade Male.

The 33-year-old star won the award for his performance in the gay comedy 'Dostana' beating off competition from Anil Kapoor (Race), Rajpal Yadav (Bhoothnath) Shreyas Talpade (Welcome To Sajjanpur), Tejpal Singh (Jodhaa Akbar) and Tushar Kapoor (Golmaal Returns).
