Aishwarya Rai Bachchan won the award for Fun and Fearless Female. Her look, however, is far from fun and fearless. The all black suit is a good look for Ash to rick at a meeting, but not for an award show.

Kareena Kapoor is styling a Manish Mahotra gown which catches the light amazingly. Kareena floats in this dress which cleverly includes pockets which puts Kareena at ease.

Imran Khan walks arm in arm with his wife Avantika. The two look like a well pieced puzzle as Imran is seen in a black tux and Avantika is in a long black gown.

Shahid Kapoor keeps it casual yet cool. His blue shirt is matched with tan trousers.

Anushka Sharma sports a sophisticated look with this black dress. The details in the dress add personality.

Malaika Arora Khan arrives solo. She sports an ultra short nude dress which hugs her curves. The plain dress is complimented with jewelry and silver stilettos.

Sachin Tendulkar was declared the Castrol Indian Cricketer of the Year as well as the Castrol Test Batsman of the Year 2009 at the Castrol Awards for Cricketing Excellence held in Mumbai on Friday (28-January-2011) night.

He was also felicitated with a Special Award for his double record feat of becoming the first batsman to score a double century in ODIs and to score 50 test centuries.

Commenting on the award, Sachin said, ‘The Castrol Awards for Cricketing Excellence are really special. The Castrol Awards are the premier awards for Indian cricketers for over ten years now and what makes them special are that they are based on recognition by my peers – fellow cricketers who understand the game and the pressures that go into every performance’.
