Veteran actress Rekha is set to enthrall the audience with her dance performance. Rekha's dance sequence will be a 22-minute segment where she will be sharing the stage with 150 background dancers. She will be playing muse to ace fashion designer Manish Malhotra. Rekha said in a statement, “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,” as reported by India Today.
