WASHINGTON DC: It was an emotional night in the People’s choice Award event for Vin Diesel.
The ‘Fast and Furious’ star’s voice got chocked while accepting two awards for ‘Furious 7’ – ‘favourite movie’ and ‘favourite action movie’, reports People magazine.
Diesel recollected the memories of his friend and co-star Paul Walker, who died in a 2013 car crash while shooting for the movie.
The 48-year-old star said how difficult it was to film the movie after Walker’s demise. Fighting back tears, Diesel told the audience he was not expecting to be hit with such a wave of feeling as he stepped onstage.
