The two-day International Indian Film Academy Awards in Abu Dhabi drew to a close on Saturday night, with some of Bollywood’s biggest names taking to the green carpet for the event’s finale.

Filipino designer Michael Cinco, who lives in Dubai, served up some of the night’s most dramatic looks, including a gown worn by Kriti Sanon, who went on to pick up the best actress award. Her mermaid dress featured a bejewelled bodice, mesh panelling on the sides and a ruffled neon yellow fishtail train.

Cinco also created a hand-printed green couture ball gown for actress Nargis Fakhri, with bejewelled straps, while Divya Khosla Kumar wore a white Cinco couture gown with an embroidered corseted bodice and asymmetric ruffled skirt. Actress Urvashi Rautela wore an embellished dress with low neckline and draping sleeves, also by Cinco.

“FYI, this dress glows in the dark,” Fakhri wrote on her Instagram stories, while also showing Cinco and his team behind the scenes painstakingly assembling her gown.

Indian designers also made a strong appearance on the IIFA Awards green carpet. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan took to the green carpet with her husband Abhishek Amitabh Bachchan wearing a Rohit Bal outfit with floral accents. Actor Ananya Panday wore a sequinned ivory sari by Manish Malhotra. She posted an image of her look on Instagram before making her way to the green carpet, with the caption: “My first sari moment and it has to be in my fave, Manish Malhotra.”

Actress Tamannaah, meanwhile, opted for a fitted, pale pink, sequinned dress by Mumbai designer Amit Aggarwal. Amruta Khanvilkar wore a striking black and white mermaid gown by Alpana Neeraj. Sharvari wore a gown by Delhi’s Abhishek Sharma Studio to pick up her award for Best Debut Female, while popular South Indian actress Priyamani wore a traditional sari by Sacred Weavers.

Sara Ali Khan wore a heavily embroidered, pearl-encrusted peplum top with covered buttons, paired with kick-flare, lace-bottomed trousers by Pakistani designer Faraz Manan. And singer Zahra Khan wore a pale pink gown with a sweetheart neckline and oversized bow detailing at the waist, by Lebanese designer Ziad Germanos.

Bollywood’s male stars also did not disappoint in the style stakes. Indian actor Shahid Kapoor sported a touch of sparkle on his black evening jacket, while actor Vishal Kotian donned a red tuxedo. Vicky Kaushal donned traditional black tie, while Suniel Shetty opted for a lower-key approach, pairing his grey suit with white trainers.

The IIFA Awards celebrate the best of Bollywood films from the past year, but this year focused on films from the past two years, as the event was cancelled in 2020 and 2021 owing to the pandemic.

Top stars of the Hindi film industry, including Shahid Kapoor, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan, attended the two-day event in the capital, which kicked off with Friday's IIFA Rocks.

Hosted by director Farah Khan Kunder and actor Aparshakti Khurana, the event featured performances by popular singers including Yo Yo Honey Singh, Guru Randhawa, Neha Kakkar and Dhvani Bhanushali.

What is Folia?

Prince Khaled bin Alwaleed bin Talal's new plant-based menu will launch at Four Seasons hotels in Dubai this November. A desire to cater to people looking for clean, healthy meals beyond green salad is what inspired Prince Khaled and American celebrity chef Matthew Kenney to create Folia. The word means "from the leaves" in Latin, and the exclusive menu offers fine plant-based cuisine across Four Seasons properties in Los Angeles, Bahrain and, soon, Dubai.

Kenney specialises in vegan cuisine and is the founder of Plant Food Wine and 20 other restaurants worldwide. "I’ve always appreciated Matthew’s work," says the Saudi royal. "He has a singular culinary talent and his approach to plant-based dining is prescient and unrivalled. I was a fan of his long before we established our professional relationship."

Folia first launched at The Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills in July 2018. It is available at the poolside Cabana Restaurant and for in-room dining across the property, as well as in its private event space. The food is vibrant and colourful, full of fresh dishes such as the hearts of palm ceviche with California fruit, vegetables and edible flowers; green hearb tacos filled with roasted squash and king oyster barbacoa; and a savoury coconut cream pie with macadamia crust.

In March 2019, the Folia menu reached Gulf shores, as it was introduced at the Four Seasons Hotel Bahrain Bay, where it is served at the Bay View Lounge. Next, on Tuesday, November 1 – also known as World Vegan Day – it will come to the UAE, to the Four Seasons Resort Dubai at Jumeirah Beach and the Four Seasons DIFC, both properties Prince Khaled has spent "considerable time at and love". 

There are also plans to take Folia to several more locations throughout the Middle East and Europe.

While health-conscious diners will be attracted to the concept, Prince Khaled is careful to stress Folia is "not meant for a specific subset of customers. It is meant for everyone who wants a culinary experience without the negative impact that eating out so often comes with."

Juliot Vinolia’s checklist for adopting alternate-day fasting

-      Don’t do it more than once in three days

-      Don’t go under 700 calories on fasting days

-      Ensure there is sufficient water intake, as the body can go in dehydration mode

-      Ensure there is enough roughage (fibre) in the food on fasting days as well

-      Do not binge on processed or fatty foods on non-fasting days

-      Complement fasting with plant-based foods, fruits, vegetables, seafood. Cut out processed meats and processed carbohydrates

-      Manage your sleep

-      People with existing gastric or mental health issues should avoid fasting

-      Do not fast for prolonged periods without supervision by a qualified expert
