Parineeti Chopra, along with a number of other Bollywood stars, was in Dubai over the weekend for the Varkey Foundation Global Teacher Prize — a prestigious award of $1 million given to raise the status of teaching as a profession.
A number of famous personalities were at the event, including Hollywood stars Salma Hayek (Desperado, Frida) and Oscar-winning actor Matthew McConaughey (Dallas Buyers Club, Interstellar). Chopra, evidently a big fan of the McCon, managed to get him to pose for a picture with her, only for this to happen.
Yep, it seems like that's how the weekend went, with Ali Zafar along with these three posting several pictures of them hanging out with both McConaughey as well as Hayek.

Kumar too got into the act by posting a picture of himself with Hayek on Twitter, which he dubbed "the selfie of a lifetime".

And there was also this formal, posed-for pic posted by McConaughey's wife Camila Alves, a model and designer.
