Bollywood actor Priyanka Chopra visited the Dal lake here on Sunday much to the delight of her fans who patiently waited for hours to catch a glimpse of her, even as many of them returned disappointed earlier in the day.
Priyanka , who was in the city as brand ambassador of Swiss luxury watchmakers Tag Heuer, visited the world-famous lake for a sight-seeing trip in the evening.
The actor herself rowed the boat for a while much to the delight of her fans who have assembled along the banks of the lake.
However, a large number of young fans of Priyanka were disappointed as they failed to see her despite skipping meals and climbing hills and trees.
As news of Priyanka's arrival trickled in earlier in the day, her fans were seen scurrying around even in the high-security zones of the city.
"I have been here since the morning to see Priyanka ," said an ardent fan Mohammad Amin.
He footslogged it around the Dal Lake, visiting all the Mughal Gardens at Nishat, Shalimar and Harwan and the Botanical Gardens, but all in vain.
"I have not seen her yet," a disenchanted Amin said. Other fans skipped meals and roamed around in the hope of meeting the Bollywood beauty,
Some youths shouted: "We heard she is staying in Grand Palace Hotel, but the guards are not allowing us inside." The sporty ones had another grouse, unable to meet cricketing legend Kapil Dev.
Kapil was among 86 golfers, mostly from outside the state, who were seen in action for nearly three hours at the one-day Tag Heuer-Kingfisher Precision Golf Tournament, held for the third year running.
The tourney was inaugurated by Tourism Minister Mohammed Dilawar Mir at the Royal Springs Golf Course.
