Mumbai:
Actor Shahid Kapoor was to pay a tribute to his favourite singer, late Michael Jackson, at Times Square, New York on Monday (August 29) but was cancelled at last minute due to Hurricane Irene.
Says a source, "The producers of Mausam had gone to great pains to get the required permission for the actor's performance at Times Square. Flash mobs comprising of world-class male and female dancers, who were going to perform with Shahid, had been practicing for weeks. The entire event was kept under wraps in India. The whole idea was to let loose his dancing prowess at the world's most avidly eyeballed recreational venue."
Now a new date for the event, which promises to be one of the most unique Bollywood concerts in history of Times Square, is being planned.
Mausam co-producer Sheetal Talwar confirms, "We were all set to have Shahid's performance on August 29, but now another date is being worked out."
