Bollywood actress Neha Dhupia sparked off a frenzy among the US media at the premiere of Independent Film Channel's 3 part comedy TV series- Bollywood Hero, in New York.

Dressed in black and brown gown, Dhupia made lensmen's flashbulbs go pop constantly, even as she happily posed for them. The premiere of Bollywood Hero was held on 4th August at Rubin Museum of Arts, and accompanying the former Miss India were the film's lead man Chris Kattan and co-star Pooja Kumar.

Living up-to its tag line that says Chris Kattan goes to Bollywood to become a Bollywood star, this comedy venture utterly succeeded in drawing laughs from the invitees. Neha plays a Bollywood actress Alima Lakhani, who meets Chris and has a roller-coaster experience with him in the series.

A source close to Neha said, "Neha was warmly welcomed. She was pleasantly surprised that the premiere of Bollywood Hero, a television series, was as grand as the release of a big Hollywood film. Neha got a warm welcome at the Red Carpet, which overwhelmed her completely."
