Mumbai:
Singer, songwriter and producer Akon will celebrate his birthday in Mumbai with Shah Rukh Khan, a day before his concerts kick off in India.
He is expected to perform in Gurgaon on April 16 and Bengaluru on April 17. The singer will be bringing in his birthday with his friends in Bollywood and fans on April 15 - a day before his actual birthday.
Mumbai and Pune were skipped on the concert itinerary because of the high entertainment taxes levied on concerts in the state.
According to unconfirmed reports, the singer, who features in Shah Rukh Khan's Ra.One, will rock at a private gig either in Mumbai or Pune.
A source said, "The concerts were actually supposed to kick off this weekend. But he postponed his trip to be able to celebrate his birthday here. He has a major gig in Los Angeles the week after that. This will be the first time the star will celebrate his birthday away from his home. Invites have already gone out to his close friends from B-Town. SRK and gang are expected to attend."
