From Katrina's birthday to taking a jibe at Kangana on nepotism, IIFA has been doing the rounds recently. Neerja bagged the Best Movie award. Alia and Shahid bagged the awards for best performers in a leading role for Udta Punjab.
New York, also known as the Big Apple was the host city for IIFA Awards 2017. But, do you know why is New York nicknamed - Big Apple?
The nickname actually springs from a catchphrase used in the 1920s by New York Morning Telegraph sports writer John J. Fitz Gerald in his horse racing column, “Around the Big Apple. ” Starting on February 18, 1924, he began the every column with the header, “The Big Apple. The dream of every lad that ever threw a leg over a thoroughbred and the goal of all horsemen. There's only one Big Apple. That's New York. ”
