Post
the
IPL
2013
spot-fixing
controversy,
Bollywood
actress
Shilpa
Shetty
made
her
first
public
appearance
at
the
glitzy
Star
Paarivar
Awards
here.
The
38-year-old
actress
accompanied
India's
dancing
superstar
mentor
Riteish
Deshmukh
at
the
ceremony
held
at
the
Yash
Raj
Studio
here.
Dressed
in
a
black
and
white
fusion
outfit
Shilpa
was
given
a
special
award
at
the
event.
Commenting
on
the
IPL
controversy
surrounding
her
and
husband
Raj
Kundra,
the
actress
said,
"I
need
to
be
careful
now
as
I
am
going
through
a
bad
phase.
But
I
am
really
honoured
that
I
have
bagged
this
special
award.
I
always
get
nervous
when
I
get
an
award
because
I
haven't
got
many
in
my
career."
The
event
was
choreographed
by
Shiamak
Davar
and
it
was
his
first
endeavour
to
design
dance
performances
for
a
small
screen
award.
"I
have
choreographed
for
TV
for
the
first
time
and
I
enjoyed
the
process.
My
mother
is
my
inspiration
and
her
support
encourages
me
to
do
something
unique
and
better
everytime," he
said
at
the
gala
event.
Later,
the
evening
was
attended
by
Sonakshi
Sinha
and
Imran
Khan,
who
promoted
their
upcoming
venture
'Once
Upon
a
Time
in
Mumbaai
Again'.
The
Star
Parivaar
awards
were
introduced
by
Star
Plus
in
2003
and
the
function
will
be
aired
soon
on
TV.
