IIFA Rocks 2017: Katrina Kaif is not amused by host Maniesh Paul, here's why

Like everyone else at IIFA Rocks 2017, host Maniesh Paul seemed to be smitten by lady in red, Katrina Kaif. But his over chivalrous ways didn't go down well with Katrina Kaif.

As seen in the videos from IIFA Rocks going viral, when Katrina Kaif came on stage to present an award, Maniesh held her hand and led her to the podium. But forgot to lose her hand once on stage, Katrina didn't mince words and immediately said, "Why are you holding my hand?" Maniesh was shocked and embarrassed but managed to come up with an instant reply, "Abhi realise hua hai aapko."

Ah, reminds of us of the times when he won't let of Madhuri Dixit's pallu when she used to judge Jhalak Dikhlaja. But Maniesh is not one to give up, he didn't stop showering attention on Katrina off the stage too. He held her hand and took her back where she was seated in the audience. This time it was Varun Dhawan who was the butt of his jokes. As he called Katrina Kaif as 'Varun Dhawan ki bahin'. Not in a mood to create any trouble for himself again, Varun jumped off from his seat.

Varun Dhawan and Katrina Kaif have a history, as Kat revealed on Koffee with Karan's last season that Judwaa 2 actor is a part of 'I hate Katrina' club. And how Varun got into trouble with Salman Khan for "checking her out "once. Lets hope, Maniesh Paul doesn't come under fire for holding Kat's hand for too long now.
