The First Hum Style Awards were held on Friday, sponsored by Q Mobile, Nishat Linen and Nestle Fruita Vitals. The show was hosted by Ahmed Ali, Adnan Malik, Aamina Sheikh and Ayesha Omar. It was a truly star studded event with celebrities a plenty gracing the red carpet and front row. Nida Butt directed the show, which the audience mostly found to be truly a first ever of its kind awards event- with Shahid Afridi mentioning that he did not feel like he was in Pakistan. Some of the more memorable performances included those of Umair Jaswal, Saba Qamar and Zahid Khan. Zaid Ali T was there as well, having a very large appeal with the spectators but not being terribly funny as he usually happens to be otherwise. Rahat Fateh Ali managed the performance without any Bollywood numbers. Sultana Siddiqi along with Duraid made an exciting announcement that Hum TV’s upcoming venture will be launching a Film Festival. The awards were criticized by a some as not being truly justified for a few catagories- something that is to be expected for all award events I suppose. It would be pertinent to mention here that accolades of praise goes to HUM TV and Sultana Siddiqi for managing to pull off big endeavours like this one which help bring the showbiz and fashion fraternity all under one roof. Press flown in from Lahore was made to feel welcome by Tehmina Khalid who was managing the PR through her company Take II. Below, is the list of winners
