B-town was all abuzz when this year’s India Youth Icon Awards ceremony took place earlier this week at the Leela Kempinski Hotel in Gurgaon near Delhi. Katrina Kaif and Farhan Akhtar also vied for the envied reward but it was "Kaminey" actress Priyanka Chopra and "Luck by Chance" star Hrithik Roshan who ended up bagging the prize for their excellence in the entertainment field.

The awards aim to reward outstanding achievement in business, sports, entertainment, media, social justice and welfare, as well as technology. And for a young yet established actress like Priyanka Chopra, this honor meant a lot.

"Youth icon is a huge word. Today's generation, my generation is a very impatient one. It wants everything fast and mediocrity doesn't work for this generation. They are quick to dismiss something that doesn't work for them. So to be a youth icon for this generation, which has very high standards, feels great," the "Dostana" star said.

The two Bollywood babes, who can now add ‘youth icon’ to their resume, have been busy attending international events and working on their next projects. Priyanka was last seen at the Toronto International Film Festival for the world premiere of her new movie "What’s Your Raashee?" And Hrithik is doing his best to gain weight for his upcoming role as a paraplegic in Sanjay Leela Bhansali new movie "Guzaarish."

But the two happy winners weren’t the only ones to bag a trophy! Aishwarya Rai Bachchan won the Global Face of the Year award, while Deepika Padukone took home the Fashion Icon of the Year award.

Congratulations to all of you! Do you think the right person won the right award? Drop us a line.
