Shah Rukh Khan is set to return to the UAE, this time as the host of the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) Awards, scheduled to take place on Yas Island, Abu Dhabi this year. The actor from 'Raees' has been involved with the awards since their launch in 2000, having served as a host, star, performer, and award recipient at the IIFA stage. At the 2017 IIFA Awards in New York, he received a special tribute marking his 25 years in the industry. Among the awards he has won at the IIFAs are Best Actor for 'Devdas' (2003), Best Actor for 'Veer-Zaara' (2005), and Best Actor for 'My Name is Khan' (2011), among others. Khan's performances, particularly those set to 'Veer-Zaara' songs in 2005 and a medley of hits in 2013, remain unforgettable. In a press release prior to the event, organizers stated: “Over the years, the 'Baadshah of Bollywood' has gone beyond mere participation at the IIFA Awards, becoming one of its most iconic figures. His contributions have been pivotal in turning IIFA into a global celebration of Indian cinema. His legacy at IIFA is defined by remarkable performances, memorable speeches, and a lasting presence that has taken the event to new heights.” Undoubtedly, this year, audiences are eagerly anticipating his return to the stage.
