He leaves with his favourite choreographers tonight for Dubai. Evidently Salman doesn't mind being isolated from his colleagues. Everyone else's performance is being choreographed by Shiamak Davar. Bosco-Caeser will stand out as the guys choreographing Salman exclusive at the IIFA.
Apparently since Salman had no time to rehearse (he returned from the Rock Stars concerts on Tuesday) he needed choreographers who know his body language in and out.
Rehearsals for the main event tomorrow (June 16) are on full-swing in Dubai.The show's brand ambassador Amitabh Bachchan arrived in Dubai yesterday with daughter Shweta. Wife Jaya and son Abhishek are expected to arrive on Friday (June 16) just before the main event.
Abhishek rushes back to Chennai right after the release of the music soundtrak of Karan Johar's Kabhi Alvidaa Na Kehna..
Aishwarya Rai breezed in and out of Dubai on June 14 for the premiere of her film Provoked. She fielded questions from the press before quickly flying out. Rani Mukherjee arrived in Dubai on Thursday. She's expected to perform an entire item based on Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Black. Mr Bachchan is expected to join Rani on stage.
Preity Zinta, rushing through the rehearsals rigorously will be performing an item based on the Arabian Nights. But the one most nervous and excited is debutant Sikander Kher who's going to perform with newcomer Neha Uberoi to one of the songs from their debut film Woodstock Villa.
Such is the secrecy surrounding the duo's debut performance on Friday that they weren't allowed to be present at producer Sanjay Gupta's press conference on Wednesday in Dubai.
"All I'm doing is rehearsing and chilling out in my room. No partying for me," laughed Sikandar nervously from Dubai. He's at the IIFA with his mother Kirron Kher.
"I don't know how our performance will go. But we've worked really hard. This is not just my first performance but also my first step into showbiz. And to dance on the same stage that has seasoned troupers like Saif, Salman, Rani and Preity is scary," shivers Sikandar.
