Bipasha Basu’s sterling performance in ‘Corporate’ was her best till date. No doubts about that. But can it match the superlative effort put in by Kajol in ‘Fanah’? The answer lies in the question itself. Incidentally Bipasha was present during the recently concluded GIFA Awards in Kuala Lampur yesterday and the organizers found it befitting that the best actress award be given to her instead of say Kajol who was conspicuous by her absence. It’s not the X Factor…but the C Factor (Read Convenience…).

It seems GIFA awards were fraught with gaping bloopers. At many an occasion the trophies kept breaking away, Arbaz Khan and Minisha Lamba goofed up their lines in spite of prominent Tele Prompters and everybody present got some sort of award or the other (Katrina Kaif: Miss Beautiful Lips, SRK and Priyanka Chopra: Most searched stars on internet). And except for Abhishek and Salman’s performance the fizz was missing in the show (SRK opted not to perform due to a torn ligament). Never mind the damp squib…check out the award list anyway…
