Returning after a two-year hiatus imposed due to the pandemic, the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) will see Salman Khan take the stage as host of the 22nd edition. Khan tells mid-day, “A lot of hard-work goes into the making of the show by artistes, performers, and hosts. It takes a lot of preparation, but sometimes, being spontaneous also helps.”
The show, which will see Riteish Deshmukh as co-host, will be held at Yas Island, Abu Dhabi, on May 20 and 21. Ask Khan how the desi film industry benefits from an Indian gala being held on international turf, and he says, “Our fans from across the globe get the chance to watch our films when this happens. Hindi cinema is appreciated, and well received. It helps strengthen ties between countries, and spread love among cinema watchers.”
