Maui Film Fest Hawaii to honour Zac Efron

MUMBAI: The Maui Film Festival in Hawaii will honour teen heartthrob Zac Efron with its Shining Star Award later this month.

The star of High School Musical 3: Senior Year and 17 Again will be presented the award on 16 June, the festival‘s opening night.

Festival director Barry Rivers termed the 22-year-old Efron as an ‘exemplary shining star‘. This year‘s mantra is ‘Trust the Future‘ and Efron is an actor with an extraordinary career behind him and an even more brilliant one ahead of him, Rivers quips.
