Lion star Sunny Pawar was the cutest little nugget at the Oscars, so it shouldn't come as a surprise that he was at the center of the night's most adorable moment. There he was, just chilling in the audience, when Jimmy Kimmel came along and asked if he wanted to re-create The Lion King. Kimmel first joked that Pawar would be the one lifting him, before raising Pawar to the sky and unleashing candy upon the audience. It was only semi Hunger Games-esque.
