Girl-fans tear up Purab's clothes in Dubai

Actor Purab Kohli's rise has been nothing short of meteoric in the last few months. First it was the movie Rock On that became a youth phenomenon, then came the Rock On concerts, culminating in the Filmfare award certification for him.

Rock On star Purab Kohli

The Killer Drummer's killer charms seem to have crossed borders and reached a crescendo last Thursday in a concert in Dubai.

There to perform at the Rock On concert in Dubai, the whole cast was on stage when Purab happened to venture close to the crowd while speaking on stage.

All was well till he got within grabbing range of a group of girls. All hell broke loose when the girl mob pulled him in an attempt to get up close and personal. Needless to say no one expected things to turn this way, least of all Purab.

It took some manhandling before he finally managed to break free and get back on stage, but not before his waistcoat tearing apart. "I was obviously not expecting a reaction like this from the girls. This came as a complete shock. But I am not complaining," said Purab.

"Show me one guy who would not be thrilled to be in my shoes, or rather, clothes in this case," trailed off Purab, laughing.
