Imran went with a dapper business look in a blue suit, light blue shirt and blue and red striped tie. Celina went low-key but still glam in a black pleated dress with a lace trim. Diamond jewellery, nude heels, kohled peepers and a ponytail rounded out her look.

The two and a half minute video, entitled The Welcome, features a young man bringing his boyfriend home to meet the parents for the very first time. It is pictured in total Bollywood style – colourful and with impromptu dancing at regular intervals.

Celina has long been an advocate for equal rights for gays and has doubled her efforts in that regard after homosexuality was recently classified as criminal in India once again by the Supreme Court.
