Priyanka, Shah Rukh, Shraddha, Bipasha Get 'Framed'

Bollywood kept its date with one of the biggest start-of-the-year events, photographer Dabboo Ratnani's calendar launch, in Mumbai on January 5. The night saw the likes of Shah Rukh Khan, Priyanka Chopra, Abhishek Bachchan, Shraddha Kapoor and Bipasha Basu showcasing their best (and sultriest) side framed by the ace photographer. Take a look.

Actress Priyanka Chopra's outfit was slightly perplexing - a skull emblazoned blue cloak by Kukoon over black pants and tee, and metallic Saurabh Kant Srivastava choker - but earned her points for taking a fashion risk. She also wore studded booties by Koecsh.

That's Dabboo Ratnani's portrait of Priyanka.

Dabboo Ratnani and Priyanka switched positions in front of and behind the camera.

Superstar Shah Rukh Khan, who came minus his family, posed with the man of the hour, Dabboo Ratnani and his wife Manisha.

SRK's portrait immortalizes his Happy New Year look. At the event, SRK said, "Dabboo makes us look much better than we are. I called Dabboo at 3 am while shooting for Happy New Year to shoot this picture."

Well, hello! Actress Shraddha Kapoor looked stunning in a tan leather skirt teamed with a black shimmery top and matching boots. We like!

Actress Bipasha Basu wore a sassy white lace dress with matching pumps. Wavy hair and red lips finished out her look. We can't decide if Bipasha looks sexier in the picture or in person. Can you?

Actress Jacqueline Fernandez looked edgy in a t-shirt dress at the do. She tied her hair in a ponytail and opted for glossy red lips to add colour to her look.

Bigg Boss 7 runner-up Tannisha Mukherjee wore leather crop pants with a matching black top to great effect.

Actress Sangeeta Bijlani wore a shimmering dress with a faux-leather jacket and matching boots at the do.

Bigg Boss alumnus Elli Avram looked raving in a black gown.

Actress Tara Sharma teamed a monochrome pencil skirt with black crop top, finishing out her look with curls to die for.

Chak De! India actress Vidya Malvade looked pretty in a floral print dress at the do.

Abhishek looked rather amused with the final shots of his wife, actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, and himself. Taking about Aishwarya at the event, he said, ""Ash is the best mother you can ask for. Her secret to looking stunning is that she remains happy. She's a very positive person and is a great source of strength for the family."

Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray was engrossed in the pictures at the do.

Abhishek greeted Uddhav and Aditya Thackeray, watched by actor Arjun Rampal.

Actor Varun Dhawan, who is gearing up for the release of his film Badlapur, showed off his dark side captured by the photographer.

Arjun checked out the photo version of himself.

Vivaan Shah, who is basking in the success of Happy New Year, posed with Dabboo.
