In celebration of Emirati Women's Day in the UAE, a day dedicated to honoring and acknowledging the crucial role of women in the nation's development, the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) Awards has revealed that Rekha, frequently referred to as the 'Queen of Indian Cinema', will be gracing the prestigious stage once again this year. The highly anticipated film event is set to make its third appearance on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi from September 27 to 29, under the patronage of Sheikh Nahyan bin Mubarak Al Nahyan, Minister of Tolerance & Coexistence.
Renowned for her exceptional talent and captivating screen presence, Rekha's comeback to IIFA will not only honor her as one of the most significant figures in cinema but also underscore her profound impact on the industry and her remarkable achievements. Rekha expressed her feelings towards IIFA, saying, “IIFA holds a special place in my heart, representing not just a celebration of Indian cinema but a vibrant fusion of art, culture, and love on a global stage. It feels like home. A beautiful showcase where the magic of Indian cinema truly comes alive, and I’ve had the privilege of experiencing that magic first-hand over the years. Being part of this iconic festival once again is a profound honor, and I am thrilled to contribute to the legacy of IIFA. The energy, warmth, and passion of the audience make it an unparalleled experience. I look forward to celebrating our cinema at Yas Island, Abu Dhabi, and creating more cherished memories with all of you at the 24th edition of IIFA. The incredible fans and the IIFA family make this journey truly unforgettable.”
Organized in partnership with the Department of Culture and Tourism, Abu Dhabi and Miral, the leading experience creator in Abu Dhabi, the largest festival of Indian cinema will present spectacular performances that will delight fans.
